Relieving a stuffy nose fast requires natural remedies that quickly reduce mucus and inflammation. Drinking warm fluids like herbal tea thins mucus for easier expulsion. Steam inhalation from a hot towel or shower loosens congestion in minutes. Saline nasal sprays flush irritants, reducing swelling. Spicy foods, such as cayenne, stimulate immediate mucus flow. Elevating the head during rest prevents mucus buildup, and warm compresses on the face reduce sinus pressure. These approaches harness the body’s natural processes to provide rapid relief from a stuffy nose without medication side effects.
