Quick and effective home remedies for a stuffy nose include using a humidifier or vaporizer at night, drinking plenty of fluids to keep yourself hydrated, and placing a warm compress on your face to help blood flow and circulation.

If you're interested in over-the-counter options, try a saline nasal spray or a medicated nasal spray such as Flonase to open the sinuses and help with congestion. Medications that contain pseudoephedrine can also help break up mucus and decongest your sinuses.
