A member asked:
Start with nasal spray or sudafed for my nasal congestion?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Saline washes: It depends on the cause of the congestion, but saline nasal washes at least don't have side effects, unlike decongestants and antihistamines. If the saline doesn't help enough and your symptoms persist, it may be time to see your doctor.
