What to do if your nose is dry and itchy, 4 ways to help you

It is normal to have a dry and itchy nose in dry weather. Don't worry too much. Just replenish water in time, eat more fresh fruits and vegetables, and then massage the nose, and it will be effective in a short time. However, if it is caused by diseases such as rhinitis, you must pay special attention. In addition to some auxiliary treatments, drug treatment is also required. In severe cases, surgery may even be required.

1. Stay hydrated

Early morning is the best time to replenish water in a day. Drinking water in the morning can wake up the stomach and intestines, reduce blood concentration and promote circulation. Replenish water half an hour before going to bed to help your body maintain a balanced state during sleep and reduce the chance of stones.

Simply eating fruits and vegetables can be very effective in moisturizing the skin. You should drink more water and eat more fruits to replenish your water. Celery, tomatoes, grapes, lemons, and kiwis all have moisturizing effects on the human body and can naturally reduce dryness in the nasal cavity.

2. Keep warm and keep away the cold

When affected by cold temperatures, the human body's physiological functions and appetite will change, which can easily lead to low immunity and cause colds. Therefore, we must keep warm in winter.

3. External nasal massage

Effect: Massaging the outside of the nose can pull the nose, promote blood circulation in the nasal mucosa, and facilitate the normal secretion of nasal mucus.

Method: Use the thumb and index finger of your left or right hand to pinch both sides of the root of the nose and pull down hard, from top to bottom 12 times in a row.

4. Massage of Yintang acupoint

Effect: This method can enhance the proliferation ability of nasal mucosal epithelial cells, stimulate olfactory cells to make the sense of smell more sensitive, and prevent colds and respiratory diseases.

Method: Press the Yintang point (between the eyebrows) 12 times with the tips of your thumb, index finger and middle finger. You can also use the middle fingers of both hands to massage the Yintang point alternately, left and right.
