Detailed Answer:
Hello, I understand your health concerns.
It is common to have such symptoms while baby is about to have teeth so as it is nothing to worry if there is no fever.
Try to feed him at frequent intervals and avoid feeding while he is crying.
If he still expels milk from his nose then visit a pediatrician at the earliest.
Take care.
In case you have any other question I will be happy to help.
