Nasal Congestion Congestion is caused by the membranes in your nose swelling up, due to certain irritants, such as viral infections, allergies, pollutants, chemicals and air conditioning. This swelling in our nose means our nasal passages become thinner which makes breathing difficult. Not only that, but when we do become irritated by something in the air or in our body, our systems often tries to counter-act these effects to protect us. For example, our sinuses might stimulate eyes to water or our nose to run. Below is a sensible arrangement of products, selected by Express Chemist, that we hope will suit your needs.
