"Rebound" congestion

Post by englandsf » Sun Dec 21, 2014 8:10 am

As it gets colder here in Austin and the heating kicks in I am finding passover humidity only causes lots of chest congestion the next morning - although it is comfortable during sleep.

Adding 1/6 humidity seems to clear my chest in the am - but does make me a little snuffly on the mask.

Anyone else going through the same thing?

BTW I drink lots of water all day so I don't think it's a body hydration issue.
