URI or allergies: Change of season time of year when I hear congestion without fever/illness, I usually think allergies. Do shower treatments where you sit in bathroom with high humidity as shower runs, run humidifier and try nasal saline drops even though not much mucous - this can help alleviate nasal mucosal swelling. You can even cut an adult breath-rite nasal strip in half and apply and see if that helps.
