Pediatrician,  's  Response
Hi....I will not suggest using either otrivin or sporidex ( there is no rationale of using antibiotic here). Try normal saline nasal drops or spray 4 times daily in both nares. If it is severe try to change posture during sleep; like side ways or prone. If these dosen't work seek an ENT consultation.
