My 13 yr old son gets really congested at night could this be allergies?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: It's not unusual for allergy symptoms to be worse at night, particularly if he's allergic to something in his bedroom, like dust or pet hair. Antihistamines like Claritin and Benadryl (diphenhydramine) can help. So can cleaning the room, using hypoallergenic pillowcases, and other measures to avoid allergens.
