My nose is blocked and I get pain in my lungs, quite often, especially in the cold season. How can I prevent it?

I am sorry to hear that you have been unwell.

One remedy we would recommend is Echinacea. It has both antiviral and antibacterial properties and will also help the inflammation which is causing your blocked nose.

I am not sure what you mean by lung pain. At the age of 20, it is likely that this is related to excessive coughing, or perhaps a chest infection.

However, any form of chest pain should be investigated and treated by your doctors so if this is the case with you, please seek further help.
