There are a few things that you can use: Vicks vapor rub, Alieve Nasal Congestion (I'm not sure if that's the right name for it but it's a pill and it clears up your nose), and you can use those vaporizers or humidifiers. Hope I helped :)

I have to agree with Mel on this one. You can get the Vicks nose thing (which is very excellent indeed- I use it myself). You may have a lot of sinus issues going on too (hence the headaches). You need to loosen all of those things up so steam is a great way to do it (If you have access to a steamroom that's the best).

Also, if you make a trip to the drug store you can also buy a nose spray that will open things up too.

At night, if you don't have one, sleep with a vaporizer. The dry air of winter really makes it horrible for people with a lot of congestions.

There are a lot of over the counter medications (ie you don't need a prescription) that you can take that will dry you out, but the problem is that most of them contain pseudo-ephedrine in it, which if you remember it's cousin- ephedrine was banned from the market b/c it may cause heart problems etc.

Just give it time though and it'll naturally clear up- if you get a fever or other things associated with it, you should go see your doctor about it.

Best of luck,
Arun

I don't know which part of the world you are in but in the Uk we get this fantastic stuff callled Vicks!

It clears your nose really quickly and you can get an inhalor thing that you put up your nose, (sounds gross but really works!) tkae a deep snort and hey presto your head is clear in no time!! I'm pretty sure all it is is eucalyptus and menthol oils which is all natural.

If that fails or you don't have that stuff over there then get some eucalyptus and menthol oil put it in a bowl of hot water cover your head with a towel and inhale the vapours. Please don't use boiling water, or if you do let it cool a while first as you can scald yourself with steam from boiling water!!

Hope this helps and you get rid of the stuffiness.
