Drugs are the major culprits behind a dry nose. Lowering humidity also causes a dry nose, which is itchy and painful. Try these tips at home:
- Isotonic sodium chloride in the form of a nasal spray or nose rinse is a commonly used remedy.
- Hydration works out in a better manner than topical application. Drink lots of water. - Put a folded wet wash cloth in the microwave for about 20 seconds and hold it over your nose.
- Use a humidifier. - Apply a moisturiser cream inside your nostrils, with the advice of your physician. - Steam inhalation with vicks is helpful.
