Hi Dear,

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern. As per your query you have chest congestion in infants which seems to be due to respiratory tract infection. I would suggest you to give cough expectorants and give steam inhalation to child. You should give antibiotic in combination with antiallergic syrup. Visit pediatrician once and get it examined. You should get X-ray chest done and start treatment after proper examination. Give child plenty of fluids to rehydrate the body. Apply mist humidifiers in room.

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.

Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
