Here are some ways to reduce nighttime phlegm:
Hydrate: Drink plenty of water and other fluids to help keep mucus thin and easy to cough up.
Elevate your head: Use extra pillows to prop up your head while you sleep to help drain phlegm from your chest.
Avoid irritants: Avoid exposure to things that can irritate your airways, such as tobacco smoke and strong fragrances.
Use a humidifier: Keeping the air in your bedroom moist can help reduce mucus production and make it easier to breathe.
Steam: Take a hot shower or inhale steam from a bowl of hot water to help clear mucus from your airways.
Avoid dairy: Dairy products can increase mucus production, so it may be helpful to avoid them before bed.
Get enough sleep: Aim to get 7-8 hours of sleep each night to help your body fight off infection and reduce phlegm production.
If your symptoms persist or worsen, consult a doctor for proper treatment.
