Brief Answer:
Saline nasal drops....

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

I would treat him with saline nasal drops. Drops can be instilled in both nose at times when the nose is blocked and he had difficulty in breathing. You can continue with sinarest AF and ambrodil as instructed by your doctor.

Watch his progress. If symptoms worsen or if he develops fever and if his activities go down, you should see the doctor.

Hope this helps.

Regards
