What Causes Green Yellow Mucus In Nose Of A Child?

my 1 yr old wakes up with green-yellow expectorant in his nose and eyes almost every morning and obstructed breathing wakes him a few times a week. he was on antibiotics which help when he is on them but a few days later the symptoms return. does he need an adenoidectomy or could it be simple allergies?

Hi.... Please do not even think about adenoidectomy at this age. By what you say I feel that it is only a simple allergy or common viral cold.

He will get better soon and in due course the frequency also reduces.
