What can i do to sleep better with stuffy nose and sore throat?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Body position: Sleeping with your head elevated keeps your nose from becoming more congested. Your sore throat can be helped with greater humidification of the room you are sleeping in and hydration of you. The best cure is time for your body to work through this likely viral process.
