Well, this is an old-timey home remedy I know, but I would suggest that you try steaming your sinuses by putting a bowl of water on the stove, bringing it to a boil, and then covering your face with a towel and breathing through your nose.  Hopefully the steam will loosen up your mucous and help your sinuses to drain.

I also heard hot steam loosens nostrils. What about strong scents, like eucalyptus, to clear my nasal passages?
user
I think that’s likely true. There are also various decongestants and other products that people can use, although I wouldn’t rely on these too much.

What's an over the counter decongestant I could buy?
