HI, thanks for using healthcare magic

The fact that your symptoms are occurring during the night and early morning imply that the reduced temperature at these times is likely causing rhinosinusitis.

This is inflammation of the nose and sinus passages.It would not respond to antibiotics.

You should consider the use of decongestants combined with anti histamines. These can be obtained over the counter.

In addition, a topical nasal spray would also help such as nasonex, nasocort, flonase, rhinocort.

I hope this helps
