Hi
My son, aged 6, has woken every for morning for some weeks now, sneezing, coughing and blowing his nose. It’s seems to be clear wet snot (sorry), not nasty. So I assume that it’s an allergy. It occurs the same in other people’s houses and also when camping. It’s not a huge problem, but annoying for him. He doesn’t get ictchy eyes or any others symptoms. Is there anything I can do to help?
Thank you

Have a look on the Asthma and Eczema sites (AllergyUK IIRC) try things like mattress and pillow protectors, vacuuming using a hepa filter, damp-dusting etc. to see if you can lessen the source.

Thank you so much, that’s great. I’ll have a look.
