How do you know when sinusitis is getting better? why is it worse in the morning?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Symptoms improving: One needs to know whether the problem was indeed from sinusitis. Since it is a common complication from nasal congestion, the nasal congestion may get worse in the morning simply because you have been lying down all night or from exposure to dust mite if you are allergic to it. Aside from using symptoms as the gauge, a CT sinus or rhinoscopic exam may rarely be needed to assess progress.
