You may give him tylenol or advil for fever and aches and pains - plenty of fluids (chicken soup and jello are good options), and let him rest. For the cough and nasal congestion, a good vaporizer and warm showers and nasal saline to loosen the secretions. The bottom line, it takes time.
If treated early he could take antiviral such as tamiflu Keep him hydrated You can use tylenol or motrin for pain and fever
