Is it seasonal change or some other reason? Can i give him saline nasal spray but there is no chest congeation.. tell me the correct the correct tratment for running nose. Thanks.
[|AI|]  Hi welcome to Chat Doctor, Common cold, running nose is self limiting illness, it usually resolves in 7-10 days. One can give antihistamines, paracetamol, and if there is nasal block, you can use saline nasal spray (it can be used as and when required, saline nasal spray is safe to use for prolonged time and as many times as required.). If baby is well, not febrile, accepting feed well, no rapid breathing, no resp distress, you need not worry, it will resolve. But if it persists than allergic rhinitis and secondary bacterial infection needs to be ruled out. Hope I answered your query thanks
