try the zicam qtip thingy u put up your nose, a vaporizor and vicks makes a handheld vaporizer u can get at cvs and it has the most potent fizziez...your nose will fall right out lol.

i'm in the same boat...i had laryngitis and bronchitis about a week ago...thought i felt better for 2-3 days and now its been crazy congestion and coughing for 4 days. I'm taking advair because i was having trouble breathing.

Jess, I highly recommend it!!!!! I use it with my allergies. Mary MOB


OR, when I was little with severe stuffy nose, my Mom would cut an onion, wrap it in wax paper, and I'd fall asleep, smelling my onion!!!! It worked!! But I don't know!!!! Does Dave like onions??????? Mary MOB

Afrin definitly does the trick for me!! I HATE that mucinex.. For some reason, it didn't work at all for me and I felt like I was drunk on it A bad drunk though... Plus, all it did was give me dry mouth... Zithromax and Afrin are my best friends when I am congested.. Feel better soon!

start to boil water on the stove....put a towel over your head and let the steam rise....but dont let the water get too hot...it can burn you!
