Can a Nasal Valve Collapse Be a Temporary Problem or Go Back to Normal on Its Own?

When laying down my nose completely closed waking me up often, I never had a problem breathing while upright/daytime. Had turbinate reduction surgery 12/1 and noticed something different with the left side but thought it was swelling, etc. It's obvious now, when I breathe in it pulls shut. I am going insane because now I have a problem 24/7 which is worse than my initial problem. Dr says live with it and use breathe right strips(which don't really work) Please give me some hope. What can I do?
