I use a gentle saline solution spray called Hydrasense for my son who has the same issue. It's made especially for babies and I find it quite effective!

You can get that seawater nasal spray called Fess. Works a treat! It softens the boogies and they wipe a way with a tissue. I love the stuff.

If you put a drop of saline water (1/2 cup water and 1/2 tsp salt) up his nose and bulb suction it. it will all come out and he won't be as stuffed up

my son had RSV this year and i used a warn mist with a vaporizer oil that went into the water, it worked and it didn't bother him..... i also used the blue bulb that they give you from the hospital to suck the boogies out of his nose.....hope all goes well
