Congestion after rhinoplasty. Is there anything over the counter or otherwise I can do to clear this out faster?

Asked By:blnd88dc in New York, NY

I'm recovering from a recent rhinoplasty (april 1) and have had a pretty miraculous recovery in regards to swelling and bruising. However, I still can't breathe from my nose and it's rather stuffy.
