7 month old with bad cough

Doesn't have a temp but does have a very blocked/runny nose and bad cough. How should I treat it? Thought calpol was only if they had a raised temp? Bought a nasal extractor thing but can't get near him with it. Many thanks.

Saline nose drops, decongestant/vicks, humidifier and pin him down to extract from his nose!

You're right, there is little value in giving Calpol. Hope he is better soon, my DD has had a cough for the last three months! Fucking nightmare.
