Is Humidifier Advisable Instead Of Rhinocort For Sinus Congestion?

I wake up with headaches unless I use a humidifier. I was using Rhinocort for a while {which worked} before I decided to try the humidifier but I don t want to use drugs unless I have to. I figure my sinuses dry out during the night. Is there anything else I can do because I m going on a road trip for a few months and the humidifier isn t going to be convienient?
