Need Moisture: If nose is too dry, it may bleed and crust. Hydrate, use humidifier, ad nasal saline spray. Protect the membranes of your nose from drying by applying bland ointment with a cotton swab to the front of the nose three times a day. Try ayr nasal gel but alternatively vaseline or a&d ointment will work.
