Water in nose: Shower water entering the nose should not pose a big problem. I doubt your doctor would recommend any intervention.

Are there any WATER BASED, ODORLESS ointments that can be used inside of one's nostrils to relieve dry nose? My doctor gave me Mupirocin (Bactroban) Ointment and it works great but it's an antibiotic. Would Glycerine be safe to use?
