Summary
Tulip 57402 developed a persistently dry nose and sinuses after COVID in August 2021. ENTs recommended saline sprays, humidifiers, and neti pots; allergy medication did little. AYR gel helped somewhat and hot showers gave brief relief. By May 2024 the dryness was still present, worse at night and sometimes disrupting sleep, but tolerable.
