Block and running nose
Hello Doctor,
My son is 10 months old and he is having cold ( basically running nose and in night block nose only) since last almost 2 weeks.
Consulted one doctor and he gave Hydroxyzine hydrochloride drops ,Nasivion nasal drop and ambrodil-s for 5 days but no success, situation is same.Now doctor says don't give medicine and leave it like that, it will improve automatically.
But it's been 2 weeks and it's not improving. In night when he sleeps makes noise, snores very much.
Kindly suggest sometime. Can I give antibiotics like zinthum ds and zincup to boost immunity?
Plz suggest what to do.
Thank you.
