Answer

You may be having a type of viral influenza. You can take Nasivion or Decon nasal drops to relieve nasal blockade. Take two drops per each nostril and do not use it for more than twice per day. In addition, take the Levosiz 10mg tablets and Dolo (Paracetamol) 1g thrice per day. Since this is viral  it will take some time to settle and medication will only help symptoms. Take adequate rest and fluids.
