General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Hello,

Let me tell you that if clearing up, you still find it difficult to keep your nasal passage open, you have most probably DNS ( Deviated Nasal Septum ) and surgical correction will be needed.

So far as constant burning is concerned, you should take steam inhalation at least twice daily. It will help your nasal passage keep moist and you will be facing much less difficulty.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
