I'm dealing with some serious nasal congestion because of a fever, and it's really bothering me. But that's pretty much the only issue I'm facingno other symptoms at all. I've heard about Otrivin nasal spray and was wondering if it's safe to use in this situation. Would you recommend it for helping with my stuffy nose?
