A bunged-up associate of mine recommend shoving a tube up there and swilling it all out with mucous-dissolving products, while viewing the world at a 90-degree angle for a half-hour for each side of the nose.
A side-effect of this treatment is, reportedly, “unexpected discharge”…
He swears by it, though.

Forum Trolls use other people’s fingers doused in acid and set on fire.

From http://www.boingboing.net/2006/09/22/18_tricks_to_teach_y.html:
5. Clear your stuffed nose!
Forget Sudafed. An easier, quicker, and cheaper way to relieve sinus pressure is by alternately thrusting your tongue against the roof of your mouth, then pressing between your eyebrows with one finger. This causes the vomer bone, which runs through the nasal passages to the mouth, to rock back and forth, says Lisa DeStefano, D.O., an assistant professor at the Michigan State University college of osteopathic medicine. The motion loosens congestion; after 20 seconds, you’ll feel your sinuses start to drain.
Might be crap, let us know if it works…
