Why Am I Having Throat Problem At Night?

Hm, well I've been getting this saw throat during night time and early morning only, I keep waking up in the night to find I have it too, but in day it's almost, if not all gone..I mean, at night I can barely sleep with it, but in day I could run a mile and be fine.

Hi Dear,

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern. As per your query you have throat problem at night which is mainly due to accumulation of seceretions while laying down. It could be due to eustachian tube dysfunction as well. I would suggest you to take nasal sprays and do warm saline gargles. You should take antibiotic Levofloxacin in combination with antiallergic medication. Visit ENT specialist once and get it examined. You should get paranasal sinus x-ray done and start treatment after proper prescription. Avoid oily and sharp food. Drink plenty of fluids.

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.

Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
