Cold ie runny stuff nose
My son 8 month 11 days old has runny nose since morning and suddenly in the evening he has got runny and stuff nose. While sleeping he is unable to breath due to stuff nose. However his temperature hasn't crossed 97.1. I have used nasoclear once at night and have given paracetamol to him. Is there anything else I need to do.
