Mgt: I would suggest a virtual consultation, but based on the information that you provided, some suggestions include nasal saline, nasal steroid spray and avoiding dust, smoke, mold and pets. Does he have any skin conditions such as eczema or food allergies?

Not 100% treated: It sounds as if your son is not adequately treated if he awakens with phlegm. In the US we have antihistamines and leukotriene inhibitors in dissolveable pill form that could benefit your son.
