A member asked:

Can my 1 and 1/2 month baby travel in ac coach of train for 20 hrs. he has congestion in nose?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Should be fine: Just try and keep him away from any drafty areas. Since he has probably not had his first set of shots either, keeping him away from people other than yourself would also be wise. A little bit of nasal saline will help with the congestion.
