A woman from Thailand filmed herself in the video as she squirts water into a baby girl’s nose. The video, posted in Emilie’s page, has garnered 3 million views in just two days after it went online. People expressed mixed reactions on the video, where the baby girl appears to be shocked every time the woman injects water through her nose.
The video comes with a roughly translated caption that reads: “Size sick still winky face overflow again. Up early, cleaned up my nose to my sister Emily brother can breathe comfortably. But what shocked bro just yesterday why it was green. No fever. But it’s snot.”
The baby girl appears to be suffering from heavy colds, which made her mucus to turn color green. After squirting her nose several times with water, the baby smiles adorably into the camera and seems to be enjoying the activity which appears to be clearing her nasal passage.
According to doctors, this nasal wash treatment is advised to be administered to patients suffering from asthma and other lung problems. This treatment helps clear out the mucus blocking the nose so other medication can be more effective. This also increases airflow especially for babies and toddlers who may still not know how to release the mucus build up inside their noses.
Some netizens had negative reactions to the video because it is known that water coming into one’s nose can be painful. Others find it disgusting but still watched the video because of the cute baby who’s in it, too. Some other comments say that this is a good idea and they will definitely conduct this when their own baby gets a cold.
Overall, the video was able to show a new way to treat toddlers whenever they have colds. The activity might be painful to watch for some, but it definitely improves the breathing of toddlers who find it hard to blow out the mucus from their noses. For people who will execute this, remember to consult a doctor first to tell you more about the right amount of water, right position, and right steps to conduct this home remedy.
