Causes and Treatments for Dry Nose

Seasonal Allergy

Seasonal allergies such as hay fever or allergic rhinitis would make your sinuses often irritated and inflamed. As a result, the tissues in these parts would become dry with sticky or thickened mucus. If left untreated, the problem would get worse. This health issue can be triggered by many causes, such as mold, plants, grasses, blooming plants, or pollen in the air. Depending on your location, you might have allergies for weeks or months. In addition to a dry nose, some other possible symptoms include headache, ear fluids, cough, wheezing, sneezing, sore throat, runny nose, itchy throat, and more. [2]
