The common cold is a very common clinical disease, mostly caused by a decrease in immune function and viral infection. Symptoms of the common cold mainly include fever, nasal congestion, runny nose, sneezing, and other discomforts.

When nasal congestion is caused by a cold, how can one quickly alleviate the symptoms of congestion? Generally, to relieve it in a short period of time, one can apply a hot towel to the nasal cavity or use some vasodilator drugs to improve the symptoms of nasal blockage temporarily.

Therefore, clinically, to relieve such symptoms, one can appropriately use some medication or apply a hot towel to the nose. However, the fundamental solution to nasal congestion caused by a cold is to use antiviral drugs for symptomatic treatment, as this is the only way to completely cure the nasal congestion symptoms caused by the cold.
