My blocked nose just won't go away but my cold has. how do get rid of this stubborn symptom?

See below: Either the cold has become a sinus infection and will need antibiotics to clear or there is residual inflammation which would respond to oral and topical steroids. If there are pre existing polyps they often enlarge with colds so suggest seeing md about possibilities.
