Answer 5

Sounds to me as though you might have an allergy cough. Try keeping an icy glass of water near your bed to ease your throat. But I would advise you to seek medical attention to see what is really going on. Don't put it off.

Answer 6

try a medicine or something... maybe you can try taking tylenol PM. I have the same problem but that is because I am Asthemetic. Again if you want to try Tylenol or Dytrex or something to do with night time medicine.
