I have been on Nasal sprays since then and they do seem to help but i get this post Nasal drip and an awful wet cough . It`s worse at night and it hinders my sleep a lot. If i get a cough triggered then sometimes it won`t stop and takes all my effort to stay calm. Does anyone else get this ? and have they found a better way of dealing with the post nasal drip?.

are you taking your nasal spray just before going to bed?

I do have Chronic Rhinitis n was told its allergy related!?

For me..i use hot compress over bridge of my nose n sinuses until it cools to cold compress.It helps my breathing n coughing.I try to be aware of what im around in my environment n what i eat also.

Thanks for all the replies .Seems the condition is more common than i thought ! I have found a Nasal Wash( Neilmed) plus the nasal spray at bedtime helps to clear the Nose but my main concern is the awful cough i have with the Nasal drip.Laying down in bed makes it worse ,as i can actually hear the rattle in my Throat but often can`t clear it .

I have suffered terrible with my sinuses for years and I find steaming my face with eucalyptus oil helps and also applying pressure to the pressure points in between the eyebrows and either side of the nose. Also there is a yoga pose that helps if you research it on YouTube :)
