Please do not prescribe anything to Lo. You may want to try sterimar sea salt nasal spray. Benadryl is not to be self prescribed. I suggest for you to bring him to the doctors. It is very important to ensure that his airway is clear and not blocked.

I agree. Better to consult your pedia first before buying any medicine like Benadryl. It has a drowsing effect on babies so you have to check first if your baby is okay to take it.

pls see doctor... benadryl comes in pediatric form also. ask doctor
