A member asked:
Is the use of petrolleum jelly safe inside the nose in case of perennial allergic rhinitis for prevention for dryness and allergen entry in the nose ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Allergic rhinitis: Petroleum jelly can work but a better idea is saline gel which is a moisturizer and cuts down mucus production.
