HI, thanks for using healthcare magic
If he is still having shortness of breath or there are any other worrying symptoms, it would be best for him to be seen as soon as possible.
Other concerning symptoms would be chest pain, palpitations, clammy sensation, dizziness.
Nasal congestion may be due to cough/cold or allergies and can be treated with over the counter medication.
If he is feeling better and there are no worrying symptoms, then he should be okay
I hope this help
