Thank you, however I must stress that I am not a doctor, simply a patient who was very mis lead by the ENT(surgeon) community.

There are many things that can cause a dry feeling, lack of air sensation in the nose. Allergies, congestion, LPR, temperature changes, new medications etc..can all cause the same feelings.

You have to really sit down with yourself first and address your entire lifestyle.

If you noticed these changes after a sinus infection you could be suffering from prolonged inflammation in the nose, which sometimes an ENT can provide a nasal regimen to get the nasal mucosa back to a health baseline while also testing for allergies and or immunotherapy.

Either way, inflammation in the nose from whatever the cause can feel dry and tight which then equates to lack of air sensation.

You still can see an ENT for it, but just know they are surgeons first and foremost. Allergist and or PCP could help you just the same.
