33M - nasal decongestant sprays and the closest alternative

Physician Responded

33M 175cm, 80kg. Fit and healthy no long term medication.

​

Many people myself included report that they feel amazing when breathing under the effects of nasal decongestant sprays.

​

I understand they work by restricting the blood vessels in that area.

​

But their use is for a limited time only due to bounce back.

​

My question - is there a natural or less intensive way of achieving the same effect to a lesser degree which is safe long term?

​

Perhaps a way of telling your body to stop the blood vessels in the nose getting so swollen?
