Hi dear
welcome to the HCM,
He needs to be given antihistaminic decongestant medicine along with some bronchodiltor with proper doses.
Steam inhalation will be help ful,
Nebulization with bronchodiltors helps a lot in reliving the congestion.
If there is lot of cough and there is some respiratory difficulty then one should add some antibiotic with the consultation of your pediatrician.
Hope the query is answered.
Thanks
