You : You are likely dealing with nasal congestion secondary to allergies and/or sinusitis. Although you can breathe ok, you still may have inflammation which is causing your symptoms. On the other hand you may have a foreign body in your nose, or is it possible you were hit in the nose while sleeping or maybe during physical activity.? Regardless, if your symptoms are still present please visit your doctor for a medical evaluation and treatment. In the meantime try sudafed and claritin. Best of luck.

Sinus pressure: Your description sounds like sinus pressure. Go see your regular doctor to rule out infection.
