Missing data: Without the age of the infant and other symptoms it is hard to speculate on what this might be or need for treatment. You are welcome to start over with more info.

Some thoughts...: Babies ages 3-12 months can easily catch colds from other people. If there is just a runny nose, without much fussiness, without any high fever, without other worrisome symptoms, then parents can leave the nose alone. If the mucous is blocking the nose somewhat, try a few drops of saline, followed by gentle suctioning with a suction bulb. A doctor should examine younger or more symptomatic babies.
