Congestion and cold - 2 months old
My 2 months old boy baby is having congestion and cold.
Between nose and throat only the congestion is.
My pediatrician gave mucolite drops for three days. Now it's been more than a week and still that congestion is not gone Fully..
Please advise
Cold is most of the time because of viral illness and if the child is having recurrent running nose and nasal congestion it can be allergic rhinitis also so it needs a proper examination.
steam inhalation will be beneficial in both the cases along with decongestant medicine like wikoryl, alex cold
In viral illness there can be cough and fever which needs treatment accordingly along with a proper hydration .
