Hi,
Welcome to HCM.
I have read your question in detail and I know that you are very concerned about your child but don't worry.
Sore nose with crusts in a 5 month baby occurs due to dryness usually.
In my opinion, you should use normal saline nasal drops 1 drop in each nostril three times a day for 3 days.
It will help in correcting sore nose in baby.
I hope this will help you.
Wishing your child good health.
Take care.
