Nasal Congestion: What helps, especially at night?
I have COPD, asthma, and a bit of emphysema and am using Trelegy and ipratropiam. Winter and summer about half way through the night a get extreme congestion sometimes totally blocking my nasal breathing.
Any tips?

Budesonide nose spray helped me a lot with nasal congestion,
i.e. in the evening.
With a delay of 1-2 days, so probably not local effects but
the corticosteroids.
There is some risk with longterm corticosteroids, though.
Drinking more may also help.
