My 5 year old son is chronically congested in both the daytime and nighttime.   Its like he has a cold that never goes away.  He can have coughing fits at night that frequently make him vomit. The worst problem is that he struggles to breath when sleeping.   We have tried Benadryl, zertec, breath right strips but nothing seems to help.   What can we do to help him.
