I have sneezed and it does run. I just want it to go away. What do u do? When I woke up this morning my nose was completely stuffed and throught was so dry I woke up not being able to breath very well. Drank water and took a cough drop. Thank you for your help ;)

Hi,
Welcome to healthcare magic.
I had gone through your question.
I can understand your concern.

This could be due to rhinitis.

I recommend the following.
1) Antihistamine levocetrizine with phenylephrine.
2) Oxymetazoline nasal drops. Don't continue this drops for more than 6 days.
3) Smoking might aggravate this condition.

You will be fine.

Hope I have answered your question. If you have any questions, I am happy to help.

Wish you a good health and speedy recovery.

Regards,
Dr Paparaja S MBBS MS
