What to do if your nose is dry

Dry nose may be associated with conditions such as environmental dryness, dry rhinitis, and atrophic rhinitis. According to the cause of the disease and the characteristics of the disease, general treatment, drug treatment and surgical treatment should be chosen.

The dry environment can be changed, and humidifying equipment can be used to increase the humidity of the environment. Use physiological seawater nasal spray to supplement nasal moisture, as well as auxiliary clear cod liver oil nasal drops to keep the nasal cavity moist.

3. Atrophic rhinitis: under the effect of autonomic nervous system dysfunction, endocrine imbalance and chronic inflammation, nasal mucosa and glands are atrophied, resulting in dry nasal cavity. Compound menthol nasal drops, 1% streptomycin nasal drops, 0.5% hexenylestradiol oil and other medicines can be used to drip the nose. Effective supplementation of multivitamins and iron and zinc preparations. Auxiliary warm saline nasal wash.
