Dd is 7 and has a history of getting
Upper respitory infections that linger and often has a cough. She cannot blow her nose which I know doesn't help symptoms. I have tried everything to encourage her with bubbles etc but she can't blow only sniff. She often looks purple under her eyes And complains of a headache. Taken her numerous times to GP but always say try steam , saline sprays etc. Last year she was prescribed beconase but it brought her up in a rash and seemed to effect her immune system so we had to stop. Pharmacist was concerned that a 6 year old shouldnt be on a nasal steriod for more than a week anyway. I have looked into going privately to see a ENT specialist but in a our area they can't see a patient under 12 privately. GP doesn't think she warrants a visit.Anyone had similar experience. She is a very poor sleeper too and has been up since 4:30 this morning. Getting a bit desperate.
