It depends if you have a stuffy nose due to allergies or a cold. A cold you can get over the counter cold medication and let the cold take it's course. If it's allergies you need allergy medications.
If it's a cold, blow your nose when it starts to feel stuffed up. Wash your hands and keep tissues nearby. When you sleep, prop your head up so your nasals can drain properly while you sleep. Drink LOTS of fluids!
If you are having "a cold that seem to lasts forever", it could be allergies. Many times the two are confused. Contact a doctor to see an allergist if this is the case. They can determine what you are allergic to, how to take care of the situation and advise on various medications.

Well if it's your sinuses, use salty water to suck up your nose, I'm not joking, doctors recommend it. If it's a cold, put some vapor rub in boiling water, hold your head over it with a towel over your head and inhale the vapor steam.
