Humidity: Buy a warm must humidifier and keep it next to ur bed every night. Costco has a good brand.Stop drinking soda and ice cold drinks after dark.Take warm / hot water baths before bed. Drink Chicken soup 2-3 times a day.see an allergist and find out what u r allergic to. If you can take curcumin which helps to modulate ur immunity,it could help ur allergies. Also eat at least 3 hrs before bedtime.
