Congestion or blocked nose makes us feel annoyed and performing our daily chores also starts to feel like a task. Natural home remedies for congestion are the most effective way to get instant relief from a blocked nose. From using herbal products for blocked nose to using ayurvedic medicine for nasal congestion, here's what you can do:

1. Take a steamy shower for relaxations- Steam inhalation is also a very effective treatment for congestion. Use essential oils like eucalyptus oil, peppermint oil, etc. in your steam water for relaxation. 


2. Make fluids your best friend- Having fluids in different forms may help you clear the congestion. Soup, fluids, hot-water, etc. should be consumed. This keeps you hydrated and also helps to thin the mucus in the nasal passage. 


3. Honey and turmeric- have always been an effective traditional ayurvedic medicine for nasal congestion. Honey combined with ginger can help kill the germs that cause infection. Turmeric milk provides the body with warmth and its antibacterial properties help clear out the mucus. 


4. Salt water rinse- It helps break the congestion and also helps the mucus pass out of the nose. Traditionally called Neti Pot, we just need to mix a teaspoon of salt into a cup of water and allow the salt water to do the magic. Tilt your head at 45 degrees and pour the water through one nostril. Let it squirt out the other nostril along with the mucus.
