7. Apply a Warm Compress

Warm compresses offer a comforting relief from runny noses. The warm cloth helps soothe swollen mucous membranes and adds moisture to the air around nasal passages. As the warm compress loosens up mucous, it offers temporary relief from nasal irritation.

To make a warm compress, soak a clean cloth in hot water before placing it over the forehead and nose, being sure to cover the nostrils and breath through the mouth.
