What is the reason for sniffling at night?

Patient's question:

Blinking, sniffing, for several days, I feel the symptoms haven't changed at all, a bit anxious, please ask when will it get better?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, sniffling frequently may be caused by rhinitis resulting from catching a cold after getting cold. Clearing the throat often indicates chronic pharyngitis. Modern medicine considers chronic rhinitis to be a chronic inflammation of the nasal mucosa and the submucosal layer. In the early stages, chronic rhinitis often manifests as chronic congestion and swelling of the nasal mucosa, referred to as simple chronic rhinitis. If it progresses to hyperplasia and thickening of the nasal mucosa and nasal bones, it is called chronic hypertrophic rhinitis.
