    Aniashok,

    It may sound very silly but this is a remedy that is done in our home and is effective too.

    Just take some vibuthi and make a paste of it, and apply it on the nose and forehead. it is said to absorb and control the running nose.

    it has been very effective if it simple running nose.

    if you're breastfeeding, you can use breastmilk in theplace of saline drops. Clears up blocked nose,running nose like magic.
    One word of caution... do not use vicks on babies, it really stings their skin. Use it on a pillow near on them or apply on a hanky and leave it near them. If you are co-sleeping apply it on yourself! What works for us is to add a couple of drops of teatree oil in boiling hot water and leaving it in thechild's room - if you have a humidifier teatree oil in it should work great too!
