A. This can occur due to weather changes or simple cold and some times infection. kindly give nasal saline drops every three hourly and since it is a salt water/saline water it does not have any side effects and can be given again and again for nasal blockage and respiratory cough. Try to prevent temperature variations around the child and you can also give indirect steam inhalation and if there is no improvement in 2 or 3 days then meet your doctor meet dr in few days
