A member asked:

Why won't my nose stop being stuffed even though i'm not sick anymore?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Nasal congestion can last much longer than the feeling of being sick. It is just your body over-reacting to the illness. It could be combined with some allergy reaction especially at this time of year and using an antihistamine may be appropriate.
