Allergy-related stuffy nose can be managed naturally by reducing inflammation, clearing mucus, and minimizing allergen exposure. Nasal irrigation with saline flushes out allergens and mucus, providing immediate relief. Steam inhalation with eucalyptus oil opens nasal passages and soothes irritation. Staying hydrated thins mucus, aiding expulsion, while a diet rich in anti-inflammatory foods like turmeric supports immune balance. Avoiding allergens, such as pollen or dust, through air purifiers or clean environments prevents worsening symptoms. Elevating the head during sleep promotes drainage, and rest helps the body recover from allergic reactions causing nasal congestion.
- Use a saline nasal rinse to remove allergens and clear mucus.
- Inhale steam with eucalyptus oil to open airways and reduce irritation.
- Drink water or herbal teas to keep mucus thin and manageable.
- Eat anti-inflammatory foods like turmeric to reduce allergic responses.
- Use an air purifier to minimize exposure to airborne allergens.
