Take a nice, hot shower. This will loosen up the mucus & you should be able to blow it out of your nose without any problems. If you don't have a humidifier already, you might want to pick one up the next time you go shopping. This moistens the air & will make you feel a little more comfortable & will make it easier for you to sleep. They make both cool air & warm air humidifiers. I have found that I prefer the cool air.

afrin 12hr is good stuff

Well steam is my best answer, but have you tried this? Start running the sink as hot as it will go, hopefully it will steam a little, then grab a towel put your head as close to the sink as you can, then drape the towel over your head so it covers the sink and your head like a tent. Breath in and out through your nose as much as possible, even if little air is flowing keep at it. After a few minutes, go try and blow your nose.

take a warm shower or a use a humidifier

I know that this may not be the best medical answer but every night before I lay down to sleep , I must put a little Vicks vaporub on my nose. Right around the nostrils. It opens up the sinuses. Hope you find this helpful.
