You feel fine enough during the day, but the moment you lie down at night, your cough starts again. Your throat feels scratchy, you keep clearing it, and getting a full night's sleep becomes difficult. This is a common winter problem, but the reason may not be the cold weather alone. Dry indoor air, mucus dripping down the throat, acid reflux and allergies can all make a nighttime cough worse. Understanding what triggers your cough can help you find relief and recognise when it needs medical attention.
