Nasal congestion due to the common cold can be treated with anti-cold medications under the guidance of a doctor to relieve symptoms. Commonly used medications include Ganmao Ling granules, Banlangen granules, and Shuanghuanglian oral liquid. If nasal congestion is severe, massage of the nasal area may be performed to promote blood circulation and help alleviate congestion to some extent. At the same time, drink plenty of water, get adequate rest, and avoid spicy or irritating foods.
