Causes of night time nasal congestion

From pesky allergies to the common cold, night time nasal congestion can flare up all year long.

Night time nasal congestion is commonly caused by a cold, allergies, or a deviated septum. You may have tried common cold treatments or allergy products to relieve your night time nasal congestion, but those may not provide the kind of relief you are looking for, and many people prefer a drug free option.

Allergies

Millions of people suffer from night time nasal congestion due to their allergies. Approximately 50% of NZ adults will snore occasionally and around 25% will be habitual snorers¹.

Colds

Globally we suffer from billions of colds annually. Adults average two to four colds annually and children average six to 10. A stuffy nose caused by inflammation from colds can make getting enough rest difficult.

Deviated septum

The septum is the cartilage that separates the nostrils. A deviated septum may block airflow in the nasal passage and may make it makes it harder to breathe through one or both sides of your nose.

If you᾿re suffering from nasal congestion due to cold, allergies, or a deviated septum, Breathe Right^® Nasal Strips have a drug-free option that works instantly and can help you breathe better all night long.
