Hello

Welcome in H.C.M.

As you said about stuffy nose with thick and dry collection is basically observed in hot and dry weather. In hot and dry weather actually there occurs increase in nasal secretion along with dryness to turn it thick and dry crust.

In this way nasal cavity becomes stuffy, and dry crest always gives the feeling of nasal obstruction. Once you clean the nose, breathing will become comfortable.

Regards.
