Anyone else get this?

Mouth breathers.

If you sleep withthe window open then it may just be the cooler air drying your mouth out and causing the flesh to stiffen and feel sore.

This isn't a medical thread and it's certainly not something worth bothering a GP over. I'm just more curious than alarmed hence why I'm asking.

Does anyone else here wake up with sore throats? It always seems to happen when I brush my teeth before bed, so I'm assuming it's the toothpaste doing it as when I 'forget' I don't usually wake up with a sore throat.

Yep. Very very reguarly.

I always assumed it was sleeping with mouth open. Or maybe central heating.

If I go to sleep with the fan on or the window wide open, I usually wake up with cold-like symptoms. Sore throat, stiff neck, headache and sneezing.

It's very strange.

I agree. I get a sore throat whenever my nose is totally blocked due to breathing through my mouth at night.

Someone's been tea bagging you in your sleep

I want to know what this damn ringing in my left ear is..

I think it's tinnitus..

Yes I had a sore throat this morning but had a little drink of water and it's fine

derkaderka · 22 Aug 2009 at 16:55

Try this , before bed get a small towel , hold it under the tap and get it really wet
Wring it out a little so it aint dripping no more , hang it on the radiator in the bed room.

See how you feel the next day

that sounds like catarrh. its horrible

Could be. Never really thought much off it cause it only affects me for a few minutes. I do have sinus trouble too, which is probably attributed.

Kennysevenfold · 22 Aug 2009 at 17:02

i only get it when i leave trhe window open at night

OldComputerGuy7 · 22 Aug 2009 at 18:41

Try to drink some water before bed and have a big glass of water in the morning, i usually start my day with a pint of water and a apple.
Or get an decent airfilter as dust can be a problem.

Biohazard · 22 Aug 2009 at 18:48

Yeah my nose has been broke twice so I always use my mouth to breathe when i'm sleeping, which means I wake up very dry. Means I seem to get more problems with sore throats more than most people.
