Will removing the laryngeal nodule the ultimate solution to the problem? Will it not open new health problems?
If you are referring to a laryngeal nodule, yes that can be removed surgically. You might also benefit from a steroid nasal spray.
Can you remove yourself to a dust and smoke free setting?

You could use a HEPA air filtration machine in your bedroom to greatly cut down airborne dust while you're sleeping.
