A. the child is less than 6 months of age so you cannot use any type of medicine without medical consultation but you can use saline drops kindly give nasal saline drops every three hourly and since it is a salt water it does not have any side effects and can be given again and again for nasal blockage and try to prevent temperature variations on 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

A. Hello ma’am You can put nasal drops into the nose to open the nose blockage for easy breathing and also you can give indirect steam for the time being. Apart from that it will be best to consult your doctor for a medication once regarding the same
