As per your query about nasal congestion in baby of 17 months due to upper respiratory tract infection, it can be relieved by saline nasal drops 2 drops each. You shouldn't worry and continue the prescribed medication. Give the baby light food like khichdi in small amounts and warm liquids. Keep the baby warm.
Hope the information helps you. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care.
Regards, Dr. Jyoti Pandey
