hi,
Its good the child got releif without medicines.
Basically it seems to be an allergic problem. I would advice you to get his sensitivity test done for allergies. &grt him a desensetised this will give him a better health& better progress.
the asthalin & Budanase may be used as per need.
The practice of "Pranayama" i.e. breathing exercizes would be help.
Avoiding allergens
About the redness &swelling of nose at present-
local antibiotic ointment he con be given antiallergic tab. (Levocetrizine )& antinflammamatory tab.( ibuprofen)half the adult dose for a couple of days would suffice.
Take care.
Thank you.
