What is "congestion"?
Congestion refers to a feeling of stuffiness or blockage in the nose or chest, often caused by a buildup of mucus. It can make breathing difficult and may be accompanied by symptoms like a runny or stuffy nose, coughing, and a sensation of fullness in the chest. Congestion can happen as a result of various factors, including allergies, colds, or respiratory infections. Treatment options may include over-the-counter remedies to help relieve symptoms.
