Have you been to your GP at all? Last time I had problems with my sinuses the nurse on the helpline suggested using a saline wash and showering before bed to help, wondering if that would help clear your nose of whatever is blocking and irritating it. Steam is good as well, I have a steam cup.

Honey or sipping warm lemonade (heat it for 2 mins in the microwave) will help with your cough. Have you tried propping yourself up with pillows? I have a u shaped pillow I lie on when I’ve been bad, something like that might help.

Hope you get some relief soon xxx

I use Symbicort and Singular on a regular basis due to asthma that is mainly from my allergies, but when my sinuses get blocked when I lay down I start taking Avamys and my sinuses clear up quite fast.
