One of my nostrils feels like it is blocked more than the other, i notice that i can breathe through one slightly more than the other?

Many possibilities: If this is a recent problem it could be due to an allergy or an infection. If it's a chronic problem it may be due to an underlying anatomical condition called a deviated septum. In any case it would be of benefit to you to consult with an ENT physician for an evaluation of your nose.
