congested nose and cough are signs of viral respiratory tract infection , its usually is a self limited disease but if the cough is very disturbing you can give him any cough syrup which will not remove the cough but it will decrease it's intensity , you can give him sinecod syrup 4 times a day.
if your child has fever , difficulty in breathing , or rapid breathing watch out , because these are signs of pneumonia and physical exam is needed by his pediatrician.
I hope this helps
