Dr. Kathleen Mullane answered

Specializes in Internal Medicine

Infant congested: Whenever an infant is ill it is best to directly contact your pediatrician to evaluate the child. Congestion in an infant could be a simple cold to a milk allergy to severe pneumonia and should not be cared for casually.
