Place vicks in hot water an put a towel over your head and use as an inhalant. If you don't have Vicks then try using Eucalyptus oil.
An old recipe that works is a substance called Frairs Balsm But i have not seen it around for some time.
If none of the above then even the hot water will help relieve your stuffiness

Walmart carries "12 hour nasal decongestant" spray made by a company called Healthy Generations. Follow the instructions exactly, very important. After about 10 minutes your sinuses will open and wow! You can breathe easily thru your nose and even sleep.

Viks is always good.or
Try hot tea and breath in the warm vapors (steam ) from the tea.
if you rub the sides of your nose (outward motion) you can feel your sinus passages opening a bit, which might help them.. Hard to describe on here what I mean but it really does work..

Get a vaporizer and put the appropriate medication in it. Or get in a warm steaming shower, which will loosen up that "stuff", and after that put some Vicks Vaporub under your nose and chin and on your chest. Keep warm and get plenty of rest.

Olbas oil is very good. Sprinkle some onto a tissue and inhale. You can also try steam inhalant of Olbus oil. Caution...............do not use decongestant for more than three days.

vicks rub
Also try an ice pack on your forehead and eyebrows for about 10 min and see if that helps.
