OMG i feel the same way! My head is pounding and my ears and nose are all clogged. What im going to do later is use my face sauna thingy and see if that opens up the passages. If you dont have one of them, you could always boil some water and sit with a towel over your head and let the steam open your passages.

boil a pot of water, stick your head over it and put a towel over the back of your head. your face will start leaking almost immediately. I do warn, however, that you should have plenty of tissues nearby!

ETA: okay so maybe next time i'll read the replies before i post anything. :)

Well its not a home remedy, but FH and I both SWEAR by the Vicks vapor inhaler. You just inhale it and your nose is unstuffed for like 6 hours! Its the best!

Get a bottle of vicks and stick your nose in there!!! Stuffy noses are the worst...they are such a minor thing but it makes you feel so cr*ppy!!! FEEL BETTER!!!!

Zycam is really good, you should try that! Also, I got this little mini vicks plug in thing for at night when I'm stuffed up. It was less than $15 - you put this little pad thing in it and by the morning you feel better. Also, I forgot who makes them but these shower soothers are good too... its this circular thing you put on the floor of the shower and it releases the menthol stuff and you breathe it in as you shower. As you can tell, I get sick a lot! That's what happens when we're surrounded by kids all day. Feel better!

try peppermint oil on your temples. The scent of the peppermint will help clear your sinuses. Something about the strength and type of scent

Neosynephrine.... over the counter nose drops... clear it immediately. THere is nothing better. BUT i must warn that when the drip down your throat it doesnt taste good. Have water ready!
