A Runny Nose for 3 Weeks

My 8 mo son has been having a runny nose for 3 weeks. He has no cough or fever, he eats good, sleeps as usual. He has eczema, maybe his runny nose is tip of an allergy too? I plan to go to see a doctor this Monday, or is this nothing to be worry about? Please, I need your opinion. Thank you, M.

Singulair and Nasonex

My 8 year old son has had a persistent cough for about 7 weeks or so. I took him to the doctor 8/19, and they took an x-ray of his lungs.
