Nasal congestion can be caused by anything that irritates or inflames the nasal tissues. Infections — such as colds, flu or sinusitis — and allergies are frequent causes of nasal congestion and runny nose. Sometimes a congested and runny nose can be caused by irritants such as tobacco smoke and car exhaust. This condition is called nonallergic rhinitis or vasomotor rhinitis.
Causes of nasal congestion:
- Acute sinusitis (nasal and sinus infection)
- Alcohol
- Allergies
- Chronic sinusitis
- Churg-Strauss syndrome
- Common cold
- Decongestant nasal spray overuse
- Deviated septum
- Dry air
Nasal congestion occurs with a common cold. The discharge from your nose may be clear, yellow or green. It may be very watery, or may be thick and sticky. You may feel unwell or tired and develop a headache or a temperature (fever). You may have a cough. Flu is a viral infection that causes sneezing and nasal congestion. The symptoms of sinusitis are mainly nasal congestion, and pain in the area of the affected sinus. This is most commonly in the forehead or cheeks on one or both sides of the nose. The pain may be worse on bending down. Other symptoms which may occur are dizziness and fever.
