General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hello
I understand your concern as these all symptoms ( running nose, blockage of nose , post nasal discharge, tears in eyes , itching over face, common cold) may be due asthmatic allergic bronchitis . Predisposing factors are mite, dust , mold , pollen , sudden fall & rise of temperature , fine dusting powder , humidity , smokes .
All these symptoms are due to broonchoconstriction . Usually there develops whistling sound also present and difficulty in breathing is very common.
If possible try to avoid these factors.
When such patient visit I usually prescribe them monteleukast+bambuterol tablet twice in day till complete relief or depending upon the severity of allergy.
But for your little one salbutamol + chlorampheniramin maleat syrup is the best drug.
Hot coffee also help.
Good luck.
