Hello!
If your son is suffering from nasal obstruction, then there will be enlarged adenoids. You should consult to an ENT specialist who can do nasal endoscopy or he will advic for an x-ray to see enlarged adenoid. Also ask to ENT specialist tjat your son has enlarged tonsils or not? Tonsilitis may cause cough and fever off and on.
Wish you a speedy recovery of your son.
