Answers:
Minor irritations in the nose and throat get worse when you lay flat!. Try sleeping at an angle using pillows!. Do you have allergies that may be acting up!?Www@Answer-Health@Com

The airways and breathing is controlled by brain center/nervous system!. At night your airway becomes more relaxed!. A couple suggestions could be Postnasal drip or Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease (GERD) caused when acid from your stomach backs up into your throat!. While sleeping, small amounts of stomach content can enter the trachea during episodes of reflux!. This acidic material irritates the lining of the trachea and bronchi causing coughing!. See you Doctor as soon as you can so you can hopefully have a better nights rest!. Good luck!!Www@Answer-Health@Com
