Hello.

Thank you for asking at HCM.

I would like to ask more questions like - did you have fever? have you had such episodes in past? do you have any other symptoms apart from nasal obstruction like sneezing, itching in nose, running nose, etc?

However, from your history, I would suggest you to take Levocetirizine and Montelukast for 3-5 days and nasal cavity irrigation with saline nasal spray 3-4 times daily. Steam inhalation will also help.

Hope this will be helpful to you.

Wish you a quick recovery and the best of the health.

Regards.

Dr Parin N Parmar
