I use a soft plastic nose mask...it works really well. My problem is that I awake in the night because one nostril gets blocked. When I get up it clears pretty fast. But it still wakes me. I have tried a couple of nasal sprays but they don't seem to work.
I use the ResMed AirFit P10 nasal pillow mask and have congestion issues. That said I do not find it really causes me a problem if I get my nose clear before I go to bed. I occasionally use an Otrivin type spray in one nostril, but try not to use it in both and avoid using it daily. Apparently you can get a rebound effect if it is used too often. I also use tape over my mouth to ensure I breathe through my nose and no air escapes out of my mouth.
