nasal congestion?


My daughter is 15 months and has serious nasal congestion for over a week. We are going to the Dr. tommorrow but i need more ideas for things to for her. she can't breathe! it is hard to eat and sleep. HELP!! we aspirate her nose with saline solution and have been giving her a medicine with an expectorant, decongestant and cough suppressent. any ideas?

Answers:
vapor riser works wonders and rub her down with baby vicks vapor rub(it has lavender in it so it will help calm her down too)when you take a shower have her take one with you cause the steam will help too and use baby body wash with minty smell to it cause the minty smell will help open her little nose up.and be sure to clean her nose out often with the nose sucker thingy(my daughter hates that in her nose but it gets all the snot out since she cant blow her nose).thats what i do to my 3 yr old when hers stop up and it helps alot.
She is too young to take a lot of medications I would just wait until tomorrow to see what the Dr says
