Suggest Treatment For Stuffy/runny Nose, Cough And Clogged Ear

my 5 year old has had a stuffy/runny nose for a week but no temperature or bad throat, and has had both a good appetite and energy levels. he is starting to cough and his ears are clogged but not pain in his ears. is this an ear infection? can this be treated over the counter or does he need antibiotics?

Hi,

I have gone through your question and I understand your concerns but this doesn’t seem like an infection. this is probably due to allergy so please give antihistamines.

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