Sometimes you just wake up in the morning sneezing like crazy and feeling terribly congested not knowing why or how that happened. The answer lies in your sleeping environment (room, bedding, pillows, etc) and the climate you are living in (dry city climate, very cold air conditioning, etc) because your nose can be a little bit sensitive and reacts to the changes in the air. Also, reactions to animal hair, mold, or dust mite can be part of the equation as well.
First, before doing anything, you should identify the problem if it is caused by irritants or allergens. As a start, change your bedding for a week, turn up the AC a little bit, or start sleeping with a humidifier. If nothing works out for you, try these 8 home remedies.
1. Turmeric
If you are dealing with morning sneezing, then sprinkle one or two spoons of turmeric powder in a pan over high heat, then start inhaling the fumes after waking up and three more times during the day.
2. Black pepper, pepper leaf, turmeric
This method is very simple actually, you only have to wrap 5 to 8 pepper seeds and a pinch of turmeric powder in a pepper leaf, then heat it lightly and start chewing on it right after you’re done brushing your teeth.
3. Fennel tea
You can develop resistance against morning sneezing causing allergies by drinking the antibacterial and antiviral fennel tea.
