@mookie99 I have had issues with dry sinuses in winter frequently. An ultrasonic humidifier by the bed has been the best therapy. The tiny particles of water from this type of humdifier penetrate deeper into the respiratory tract so more effective than a regular humidifier. My hubby is a respiratory therapist so he is knowledgable on these things. I also use Neilmed sinus flush daily when it is bad. As much as I dislike doing this, it really helps. I have better success with the flush bottle than the Neti pot. Being alert to your oral hydration is also important. Sometimes just water isn't keeping up with the need and using an electrolyte solution daily can help. Have you seen an ENT about this long lasting issue?
