Hello there,
Plain normal saline nasal drops like plain solvin drops are the best and safest to use at this age. Mostly these are viral infections and resolve spontaneously. If condition persist or is very problematic, can plan to start oral anti-allergic drops. Keep the baby well hydrated and keep giving plenty of fluids.

Allergies can cause your baby's body to create extra phlegm. Since your baby can't blow their nose or clear their throat, this phlegm stays in their narrow nasal passages. It may not be true wheezing if the phlegm is only in the nose or throat and not the lungs. Let's have a detailed discussion for better advice and medication plan.

A viral infection will get well in due course of time. Medicines will not have much effect. Use saline nose drops as and when required for blocked nose. In case of any breathing difficulty pls visit your nearest hospital.
Nasal congetion? Endoscopy of nose, CT scan PNS, etc will help to come to diagnosis. Avoiding allergens, will help you. You may require Antihistaminics and nasal decongestants. You may require surgery?.
Having issues? Consult a doctor for medical advice
