Fortunately, there are Ayurvedic treatments for nasal congestion that can be very successful in relieving symptoms even when traditional cold remedies and tissue boxes are ineffective.


Here we have 5 home remedies for stuffy nose and nose block which is a common winter problem.


1. Haldi



Since ancient times, Haldi has been used to cure a variety of illnesses, from wounds and skin infections to respiratory disorders like the common cold. The herb is notable for having potent anti-inflammatory, antibacterial, and antihistamine properties that are attributed to curcumin, which is the herb's primary chemical ingredient. Simply mix one or two teaspoons of turmeric powder into hot milk to make it.


2. Amla



It would be quite difficult to find any genuine Ayurvedic immunity supplement that does not include amla as a central ingredient. In addition to being the highest source of vitamin C, research has found that amla possesses potent antibacterial activity against over 100 different bacterial forms. You can eat raw amlas as fruit or search for the ingredient in amla juice and other Ayurvedic remedies.


3. Tulsi



Tulsi is a crucial medicinal plant in the Ayurvedic tradition that is used to strengthen immunity, purify the body, and treat a wide range of illnesses. It is also an important component of Ayurvedic nasal decongestants, whether they are used for sinusitis or the common cold. 


4. Ginger-Garlic Juice



Although ginger and garlic are common culinary ingredients, Ayurveda has long acknowledged their therapeutic benefits.  They also have antibacterial and anti-inflammatory qualities that could speed up healing. 


Along with your revitalizing ginger tea, you can also crush some ginger and garlic cloves to extract the juice, which you can then combine with honey before drinking. Every morning, one teaspoon of the mix can quickly and effectively relieve nasal congestion.


5. Pudina



Another widely used culinary plant in India is pudina, or peppermint, which is used to treat digestive and respiratory diseases. Menthol, the herb's primary pharmacological component, has been shown in studies to operate as a natural decongestant with potent antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties. Pudina has gained popularity outside of Ayurveda and is now included in some of the most potent cough syrups, inhalants, and balms for the chest.


However, if you are not able to get any relief and the conditions gets worse visit your nearest doctor or family healthcare professional immediately.
