Hi
Thanks for your query.
Your baby was having upper respiratory symptoms which now according to you are getting better.
For nose block I suggest you to use saline nasal drops 3 to 4 times a day before feeding.
Humidify room with steamer as it will prevent dryness of airways.
In case it persist get him evaluated by pediatrician.
Hope this helps.
God bless.
