How do you get rid of nasal congestion?

Here are ways you can clear nasal congestion: Drink lots of water and clear fluids. Fluids help thin mucus and ease congestion. Use a saline nasal spray or wash to flush out mucus. Apply adhesive strips to your nose to open nasal passages. Use humidifiers to moisten the air at your home and/or workplace.

Can a warm compress help with nasal congestion?

A warm compress may help alleviate some symptoms of nasal congestion by opening the nasal passages from the outside. To make a warm compress, first, soak a towel in warm water. Next, squeeze the water out of the towel, then fold it and place it over your nose and forehead.

Can a decongestant help irritated nasal passages?

A decongestant medication can help reduce swelling and ease pain associated with irritated nasal passages. Many decongestants are available without a doctor’s prescription. They come in two forms: nasal spray and pill. Common decongestant nasal sprays include oxymetazoline (Afrin) and phenylephrine (Sinex).
