My body reacts to the common cold by giving me nasal congestion for up to 2 weeks after all other symptoms at gone. I have tried humidifier, tried boiling water an doubting it in a bowl and putting may face over it. I tried those nasal sticks that have they stuff that starts with an m in it, tried saline. Everything and nothing has cured this long lasting nasal congestion
