3. Nasal irrigation

Nasal irrigation really helps to ease the stuffiness that you feel when your nose is blocked. You can buy several different types of nasal irrigation systems at your drug store. You can also use a saline squeeze bottle. Both will do the job. You can buy a pre-made saline solution or make it yourself with salt and distilled water.

If you are performing nasal irrigation for the first time, it can be tricky. What you want to do is spray the saline solution up one nostril and let it come out the other. This will help alleviate any type of sinus infection that you may get while suffering from this sickness.
