Nasal congestion & frequent sneezing

2020-07-16 00:21:04
Hello, My son aged 10 months has started sneezing profusely since yesterday morning. Accompanied by slight cough. By evening his nose is running and having congestion. Can we use otrivin pediatrics for our baby to clear nasal congestion ? And what others would we give him?
