Hi thanks for writing to Practo consult Does your baby have fever, cough, difficult breathing. If No please give Normal saline nasal drops ,( pleanty are available in market), 2 drops before every feed, to keep nose clear. If required use, nasal mucus sucker to clean nose. If no improvement in 2 days or you observe signs I mentioned above, Visit Pediatrician.
