I am suffering from nasal congestion in the nights and breathing disorders, during nights as soon as I would lie down on bed my breath became abnormal and short of oxygen. Though breathing as normal I felt difficulty and also lack of oxygen intake. I tried a few regular remedies like veg and a few tablets prescribed by doctor. But nothing worked. Then I learnt about otrivin and nasivion. I tried nasivion and it working well. I am having firm sound deep sleep after a long, as it working miraculously well. Thereafter I started using it often. A month later I started keeping it regularly in my house like usual household essentials burnol, dettol, iodex etc. If nasivion was not available I used otrivin which worked equally well. 3 months later I became so addictive that I could not sleep without inhaling either of this. Any suggestions to get rid of this nose drop addiction?

You are suffering from DNS/polyp/allergic rhinitis. Take nux vomica 200/twice at bedtime 1. Do saline gargles. 2. Whenever possible do steam inhalation also. 3. Cover your nose and mouth with hanky for at least 30 sec when you go in dusty areas also when you go in and out of ac. As our nose is the most sensitive part of our body, when there is a temperature difference between two rooms or inside n outside, then if we not protect our nose, it gets affected. 4. Drink hot liquids --hot liquids relieve nasal congestion, prevent dehydration, and soothe the uncomfortably inflamed membranes that line your nose and throat. 5. Sleep with an extra pillow under your head-- Elevating your head will help relieve congested nasal passages. If the angle is too awkward, try placing the pillows between the mattress and the box springs to create a more gradual slope. 6. Treat that stuffy nose with warm salt water-- salt-water rinsing helps break nasal congestion, while also removing virus particles and bacteria from your nose. 7. Blow your nose often (and the right way)-- it's important to blow your nose regularly when you have a cold rather than sniffling mucus back into your head. But when you blow hard, pressure can carry germ-carrying phlegm back into your ear passages, causing earache. The best way to blow your nose: press a finger over one nostril while you blow gently to clear the other. Homeopathic treatment has very encouraging results. Consult online for details.
