I Need Immediate Medical Attention...
...I have a bit of a cold...but only one of my nostrils is repeatedly clogging up...I can still breathe, but it's so bloody irritating. Any suggestions? Blowing it doesn't help.

if you take 1000mg of vit. c and a zinc supplement every day youre cold will last about half as long and be less severe. i am a paramedic and this has worked for me for years and i spend all my time around sick people.

If blowing doesnt work try sucking.

THat used to happen to me a lot before I began my allergy vaccinations. It was kind of annoying, but just wait an it'll go away.

Breathe out of your mouth. Run your nose through water, saline or chlorine(if you have pool).

Try eating a real bastard of a hot chilli. A good treble whisky for pudding.
And if that doesn't help, administer some more whisky (medicinal purposes) and you won't care about the nostril.
breathe some warm water up your nose, don't forget to breathe it back out

Plain old saline solution sprayed in the clogged side....
or nasal spray, but follow the directions exactly.

If you think you need help....
(My dad visits marine fish forums, we have a foxface so he was curious, it's a yellow fish with a black and white striped face and it can raise little poisonous spines down its back)

It might not cure your cold but it'll cheer you up. ;)
Fill a bulb syringe with warm salt water and use it as a nasal spray, this will clear you up, completely. And if for some reason it doesn't you'll be so thankfull to not be squirting salt water up your nose stuffiness won't seem to matter much
OR go to the store and buy a bottle of nasal spray containing Oxymetalozine Hydrochloride (I think that is what it is called, if not it's darn close)
This stuff works MIRACLES

I think we are losing the patient. I'm going to need to shock him.
Get the paddles, nurse!
Everybody Clear!
