Is this mouth breathing

Been to the vet Sunday and Monday and the little fella is now on antibiotics and a water tablet to help get rid of fluid, as the vet says those should work best. When I was watching him run about just now I was unsure if he was mouth breathing, or it's just because he is struggling that it looks like that, because I can clearly see the nostrils moving too. The past 2 days we have been to the vet she has said it doesn't look like he is mouth breathing, so I don't know if this is a new change or me just worrying

Strange noise i haven't heard before Frome degu

He has been making this noise now for the past day, you can hear it best around the 10second mark, im unsure if he is smelling something or if it's a breathing issue, sometimes over the past day he also seems to make a sound I haven't captured that sounds like a sneeze would be the best way I can describe it
