Dry pune weather
Hello doctors,
The weather in Pune is very dry these days and I wake up with a dry mouth in the morning in spite of good water intake throughout the day, the dry mouth and dry nostrils are yet present only in the morning which makes the first swallow of saliva feel lumpy in the throat.
After 10 to 15 mins of waking up however I have thick mucous produced in the nose and mouth is normal again.
Rarely sneezing happens in the morning.
May I request steps to manage this, shall I opt for a humidifier.
Thank you

Yes you can opt for a humidifier. In addition, can use saline nasal drops three to four times a day. Try using mometasone nasal spray 2 puffs at night in both nasal cavities before going to bed, continuously for a month.
Next Steps
Mometasone nasal spray at bedtime
