My son 8 months old son has flu and last night his nostrils were very congested, it was as if he was struggling to breath, what could this mean?

Maybe: The possibilities range from simple nasal congestion to a dangerous flu related pneumonia. I think any infant struggling to breathe should be seen by a doctor on an urgent basis.
