Nasal congestion or stuffy nose occurs when nasal and adjacent tissues and blood vessels become swollen with excess fluid, causing a stuffy plugged feeling. <b>Nasal congestion may or may not include a nasal discharge or runny nose.<\/b><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Why_is_my_nose_stuffy_but_theres_nothing_there\"><\/span>Why is my nose stuffy but there&#8217;s nothing there?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Many people think a stuffy nose is the result of too much mucus in the nasal passages. However, <b>a clogged nose is usually the result of inflamed blood vessels in the sinuses. A cold, the flu, allergies, or a sinus infection can all inflame these blood vessels.<\/b><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Can_you_have_sinus_infection_without_mucus\"><\/span>Can you have sinus infection without mucus?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>The bottom line. <b>It&#8217;s possible to have a sinus headache without any congestion, especially if you have a history of allergies and other sinus issues. However, a sinus headache is usually associated with allergies, colds, or an infection. Migraines are commonly misdiagnosed as sinusitis.<\/b><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Why_do_I_sound_like_I_have_a_cold\"><\/span>Why do I sound like I have a cold?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>A hyponasal voice is <b>usually due to a blockage in the nose. That blockage can be temporary  such as when you have a cold, sinus infection, or allergies. Or, it can be caused by a more permanent structural problem such as: large tonsils or adenoids.<\/b><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_happens_if_there_is_no_mucus_in_the_nose\"><\/span>What happens if there is no mucus in the nose?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Dry sinuses occur when the mucous membranes in your sinuses lack proper moisture. This can lead to <b>dry nasal passages, discomfort, nosebleeds, and similar unpleasant symptoms. In severe cases, untreated dry sinuses can become infected and require antibiotics.<\/b><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Can_you_have_a_sinus_infection_without_mucus\"><\/span>Can you have a sinus infection without mucus?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>The bottom line. <b>It&#8217;s possible to have a sinus headache without any congestion, especially if you have a history of allergies and other sinus issues.
