To decongest a 16-month-old child, it is recommended to practice nasal hygiene. Using saline solution in a syringe may be more effective than saline solution in a bottle. If the child only has congestion and nasal discharge, an antihistamine like Reactine may be considered. However, if the child has colored secretions, fever, or a productive cough, it may be best to consult a doctor as it could be a sign of a virus.
