Benefits of Neti Pots in Children

In general, using a neti pot is considered to be safe for children, as long as it is done correctly and measures are taken to prevent contamination of the pot or the irrigation solution. A neti pot (or any other form of nasal irrigation) may be a good alternative to cold medications, which are no longer recommended for young children.
