I'm really worried about my 45-day-old baby who's having trouble breathing due to a blocked nose. Can I use this nasal spray whenever I feel it's necessary? Is it safe for such a young baby? I'd really appreciate some advice.

I've been dealing with this cough for 34 days now and it's getting really frustrating. On top of that, whenever I move my tongue or yawn, I get this strange pain in my tongue and ear. And when the earache gets really bad, it kind of feels like there's air trapped in my ears. What could be causing this and should I be worried?

What should I do next?
