About Nasal congestion.

Nasal congestion is a common symptom and clinical manifestation characterized by the sensation of blocked airflow, fullness, or increased resistance within the nasal passages of the upper respiratory tract.

It affects individuals of all ages and is typically driven by mucosal inflammation from conditions such as viral upper respiratory infections, allergic or nonallergic rhinitis, and rhinosinusitis.

Pathophysiologically, inflammatory and neurogenic cascades trigger venous sinusoid engorgement, mucosal edema, and hypersecretion of mucus, which significantly narrow the airway lumen.

Clinically, it frequently co-occurs with rhinorrhea, facial pressure, mouth breathing, and impaired olfaction, and may be exacerbated by structural variations such as septal deviation or nasal polyposis.
