Ok so my nose is really weird in that it always gets stuffed up at night. I go to bed stuffed, I wake up stuffed. Like right now, it's 10 of 12, and I can only breathe out of my right nostril- which is rather annoying as I can't enjoy my scented candle, and everyone knows nighttime is the best time to enjoy scented candles. And it's not like an every once in a while thing, it's just something I've been living with. Anyways, I figure since I'm not actually like sick or anything, I shouldn't meds every single night of my life [0_o] so I was wondering if anyone knew any other ways of clearing up my nasal passages? It would make life ever-so-much more lovely :daisy:

Uhh, I'm not sure if this will work for you but...

Get a mug full of warm water and add a large amount of rock salt (rock salt only). Gargle it in the bathroom and make sure you don't swallow it. That should work fairly well.

What you can do is get some Eucalyptus, put it in a bowl of boiling water and inhale it through your nose. This should help clear your nasal passages.
