Hello,
It could be a simple viral infection and you can safely give “asthakind-p”. It contains bronchodilators and antiallergics as active ingredients and is safe for kids also. Nothing much to worry and the symptoms will settle in a few days.
You can also use saline nasal drops to clear the nasal block. If the symptoms persist and in case of fever spikes and thick nasal secretions, we have to start on antibiotics.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
