Dry Nasal Passages: Try leaning over a steaming bowl of water with a towel covering your head & the bowl & breath the steam in - that can hydrate the passages. As long as any discharge is clear you are OK. Also, NaSal or a sinus wash may be useful (most pharmacies carry both) or running a humidifier will help. Heating season drys out the sinuses & leads to congestion. If discolored discharge or fever see MD.
