Home remedies for stuffy nose relief leverage natural methods to clear nasal passages, reduce inflammation, and improve airflow. Warm fluids like ginger tea hydrate the body, thinning mucus for easier expulsion. Steam inhalation with peppermint oil opens nasal passages and loosens mucus. Nasal irrigation with saline flushes out mucus and allergens, relieving congestion. Spicy foods, such as horseradish, stimulate nasal drainage. Elevating the head during sleep promotes natural mucus flow. These approaches enhance nasal health naturally, addressing stuffiness effectively for improved breathing and comfort without reliance on synthetic medications.
