Sinus Discomfort Goes Away at Night

My elderly mother has issues with sinus pain. She's on a handful of medications for different things, which may be complicating matters. She doesn't have sinus issues every day, though she's noticed that when she does, it's almost always during the day, and then goes away at night. Could this just be related to the weather, and not something she can control, or is this a common thing that can possibly be treated somehow? I know this may be hard to answer without knowing what medications she's on, though I wanted to start somewhere. Thank you for any feedback.

    Does she have any allergies? This could be contributing.i have severe nasal congestion and have hayfever but my nose is more blocked at night.i take antihistamine and nasal spray.does she take anything like this to help relieve symptoms? Or possibly it could be sinus infection

      Thank you for the reply. Yes, she has several allergies. She's on medication for allergies, asthma, as well as sinus pain.
