See...Allergist...: 34 y/o says, I am chronically congested. Nothing works. What can I do? Best to see PCP or Allergist for Comprehensive Evaluation, History, Physical and appropriate labs. Meanwhile, best to avoid environmental conditions that aggravate the congestion.

Proper evaluation: Nasal congestion can be caused by anatomic abnormalities or some disease ( like allergy, sinusitis, polyps or rarely cancer).It is best ti be seen by a physician who is well versed in treating nasal problems and can offer comprehensive evaluation. One may need skin testing for allergies, CT scan to evaluate for structural problems. A variety of medicine and treatments available for treatment
