Would Food Positioning Cause Clogging Of Nose?

I just threw up from what felt like mild food poisoning. My nose is really clogged and I was wondering if there was a trick to unclogging it. If I push hard I can secret more of the thick goop I threw up. It declogs a little when I do that but immediately gets worse again. Any thoughts?

Way to decongest your nose. You could try:
- Nasal sprays with saline or Afrin (can buy at your local pharmacy)
- Nasal dcongestants like pseudo-ephedrine
- Blowing your nose
- Inhaling steam (like a Neti Pot)
