Is there a way to keep my nose from drying out?

Asked by ubersiren (15208points) September 2nd, 2009

My nose easily becomes dry and I get little nose bleeds. It’s worse in the morning when I first wake up, and even worse when the weather is dry, of course.

I try do drink a lot of water, especially in the evenings and before bed to keep hydrated.

Nasal sprays contain salt, which ultimately make the problem worse. Maybe there’s a prescription nasal spray for this? Though I’d like to try something else before getting an rx for it.

Using Fluther
