When the air humidity is below 40%, the mucus in the nose dries up, hardens and interferes with free breathing. The worst part is that bacteria will grow more easily under these conditions. The optimum humidity level is between 40 and 60%. Do not hesitate to use a humidifier to maintain an optimal humidity level in a room of the house.

5. Warm your nose with a hot towel

Take a small towel and heat it in the microwave or put it in very hot water and wring it out. Then put the towel over your nose. It shouldn't be boiling hot, just a warm, pleasant temperature. Once on your nose, the heat will make the mucus more liquid and therefore easier to evacuate. After warming your sinuses, gently blow your nose or do a saline enema as explained here. The nose will clear immediately.
