Have you tried a simple saline nose spray twice a day? You blow your nose first, then squirt. Give it a few seconds to sit up there, then blow your nose again. It works wonders to clear out the nasal stuffiness. You may also be able to get something from your GP like flonase, which doesn't dry out your nose as much, but does help with the congestion over a longer period of time.
