Painkillers are your friend.

I'm immune to most of them, so it seems.

The usual paracetamol and co-proxamol don't work. I don't want to keep taking co-dydramol because I don't want to get hooked on them (I've only just stopped taking them for another injury).

But, I shall take one if it gets worse.

Any other ideas?

Don't blow it, just keep tissues handy.
friars balsam or vics vapo-rub in boiling water... tea towel over your head and just breath in the steam... will cause your nose to clear and will make it run a lot. then you'll just be able to wipe the end of your nose without the need to blow it.

you need to try breath through your nose as much as possible when doing the above to get the best effect, but the steam should help dissolve the blockage.
