What Causes Runny Nose And Watery Eyes?

My 5 month old has had a runny nose (clear mucous) and watery eyes (no redness) for the last three days. She doesn t appear to be fussy or uncomfortable. I do hear the congestion in her nose when she is breathing. Does this sound like a cold, or an allergy?

Hello,

It is cold, nasal congestion with nasal discharge occurs due to swelling of the nasal mucosa. Eye discharge occurs after blockage of lacrimal duct. Start anti-cold drops, nasal saline drops.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
