Coughing and nasal congestion
My 2 month baby has nasal congestion followed by coughing . Today is day 3
We visited the paediatrician he said the chest is clear and prescribed atrax 3 drops and nasoclear. The baby is alert and feeding well.
The baby is coughing only when awake and after feed . The cough is dry mostly.
I am worried if it is something serious. He is sleeping well and breathing easy in sleep . Only when he wakes or is in active sleep he makes congestion sounds through nose and coughs ..
Please advise if any other intervention is required ? Also how soon will the cough clear . ?

Continue nasoclear. It will settle soon.
Also ensure you do burping following each feed for atleast 15 to 20 mins.
