Is Raw Feeling In The Nose And Throat After Using Steroid Nasal Spray A Concern?
I feel like I have the flu. Tight sore throat, very swollen lymph nodes, trouble breathing. My dr. Prescribed me a steroid from a compound pharmacy to use as a nasal cleans twice a day, mix the capsule with saline water and spray away. My nose and throat are raw. Could it be a reaction to steroid?

Hi,
The raw feeling is due to using of steroid which might have peeled off the skin in that area due to excessive sneezing. I suggest you keep calm and have lots of fruits especially vitamin C. It causes healing.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
