What Causes Nasal Congestion?
Nasal congestion results when the tissues lining your nasal passages become swollen or inflamed. Mucus buildup often contributes to the blockage. Common triggers include:
- Viral infections like colds or the flu
- Chronic sinusitis or rhinitis
- Environmental or seasonal allergies
- Exposure to smoke, pollution, or strong odors
- Asthma and other respiratory conditions
- Structural concerns like a deviated septum
- Hormonal changes (e.g., during pregnancy)
Identifying potential contributing factors helps guide the development of an appropriate treatment plan.

- Allergy testing
- Nasal endoscopy
- Imaging studies (such as CT scans if indicated)
