Viagra is one of the safest drugs. However, it does cause some mild adverse effects, or better to say, some nuisances. These minor annoyances are quite common with it, and most of the Viagra users would experience them earlier or later.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
One of the most common complaints from Viagra users is nasal congestion (1<\/a>). Though it lasts only for a few hours, it can act as a mood spoiler. And being in the right mood is very important when planning to have a romantic date or sex.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Nasal congestion is frequent and is one of the unwanted effects of Viagra; it is not an unexpected reaction to it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Viagra works by dilating the blood vessels in the penis, increasing blood flow, and thus giving a hard erection. However, it is not 100% selective and also influences other blood vessels. It may also dilate the blood vessels of other parts of the body, too (2<\/a>).<\/p>\n\n\n\n It is due to this unwanted dilation of blood vessels in other parts of the body it causes facial redness, headaches, and dyspepsia. Due to this property, it is better to avoid using sildenafil with certain medicines used to treat heart conditions and blood pressure, as it may cause an unexpected drop in blood pressure due to vascular dilation (3<\/a>).<\/p>\n\n\n\n Most individuals would have no or mild nasal congestion that would not require any attention. Moreover, in most people, this nasal congestion would be very short-lived to cause much discomfort.<\/p>\n\n\n\n However, some individuals are more susceptible to nasal congestion. Usually, these are people prone to allergies, and respiratory infections. The presence of vasomotor rhinitis considerably increases the risk of severe nasal congestion (4<\/a>).<\/p>\n\n\n\n People with allergies or vasomotor rhinitis have very sensitive nasal blood vessels. Additionally, due to chronic nasal issues, blood vessels inside their nose are hypertrophied. Thus, when they take Viagra, nasal blood vessels react promptly, causing nasal congestion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Fortunately, one can control or prevent nasal congestion in most cases. One can achieve this in multiple ways;<\/p>\n\n\n\nWhy Does Viagra Cause Nasal Congestion?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
