The mucus inside the nose can dry up and clog the sinuses with infection-causing microbes.
The clogged sinuses can get infected and lead to changes in sinus pressure. You can inhale steam to humidify the dried up mucus and it can be drained out.
Here are some ways that can drain the sinuses naturally and relive out the pressure-
-Use a humidifier
-Avoid cold, dry air
-Take plenty of hot showers
-Drink cup of heat tea or soup

Allow the body to get a good night’s sleep for 8-9 hours to reduce the sinus pressure and speed up the recovery.
When you are asleep, the body is able to produce more white blood cells that can fight off the infection.
Avoid activities or beverages that can over-stimulate just before going off to sleep. Hence, it is essential that you sleep for the whole night to get relief from sinus pressure.

This remedy has helped to relieve out sinus pressure. You can recline with a hot washcloth over the eyes and nose that warms up the nasal passages and loosens out secretions.
To get better results, you can apply warm and cold compresses alternatively. You can start by placing a hot towel over the sinuses for three minutes and then place a cold compress for 30 seconds.
Do this alternatively twice and try this for four times a day to get the best results.

The nose acts as a filter for the lungs. It filters the minute particles such as allergens and irritants that can trigger an allergic reaction.
Irrigating the nasal passages can clean out these particles and help in getting relief from the sinus pressure. There are three ways you can try nasal irrigation-
Saline irrigation- This irrigation flushes out the unwanted irritants with the help of the saline solution. Saline irrigation helps to breathe easily almost instantaneously.
Steroid irrigation- In addition to salt, a steroid is mixed with the solution and then is used to rinse the sinuses.
Xylitol irrigation- For patients suffering from chronic sinusitis, this is the most effective method of irrigating the noses. This uses sugar alcohol which is rich in both antibacterial and antiviral effects.

-Wash the bedding in hot water to wash out any allergy exposure

Dehydration is one of the major causes of the sinus passages drying out and you feel an increased pressure in the face. Remember to drink at least 1.5-2 liters of water daily.
This will reduce blockages inside the sinuses. Make sure that you drink enough water throughout the day. Not only water, but you can also drink fluids through other food and beverages such as-
-Broth soups
-Ice cubes
-Tea
-Water-based vegetables and fruits

Spicy foods are loaded with capsaicin, an active ingredient that is effective in decongesting the sinuses. Many people have reported success in getting relief from sinus pressure after eating spicy foods such as chile peppers or hot mustard.
Next time you have blocked nose or facial pain around the eyes, help yourself with a bowl of hot and spicy soup.
