Maybe. Some people are quite sensitive to the environmental changes that can trigger upper airway drainage/ add to sinus risk. Controlling the environment that you can at home/work can help. Maintaining a humidity between 30-40% with a humidifier in your sleeping areas can reduce the triggering effect of dry heat on sinuses.
