The cold and flu season is in full swing, so it’s fairly likely that you’ll catch a cold or two before the year is up. A blocked nose is one of the most annoying symptoms that comes with a cold, as not only does it make it harder to breathe, but it leaves you feeling congested, ‘bunged up’ and uncomfortable.
But a blocked nose is even worse when it comes to sleeping. Sleeping with a blocked nose means you tend to sleep with your mouth open to compensate for the lack of airflow in the nostrils. This can result in you waking up more throughout the night and leave you with a dry and sore throat the next day – and that’s if you can even fall asleep at all.
