Dry Nose And Mouth After Smoking Marijuana. Any Way To Prevent Runny Nose?
i found that smoking marijuana helps relieve my allergies. normally my nose keeps running / im sneezing after eating any kind of food, but my nose is completely dry for 2 hours after smoking. the nose is probably dry for the same reason that the mouth is dry (cotton mouth). is there any way to dry up my nose without having to smoke?

Hi,
You seem to be suffering from allergic rhinitis. Smoking marijuana is definitely not the treatment for the same. You need to stop smoking marijuana first. You need to visit an ENT specialist and get yourself evaluated in detail. Medicines that may be of symptomatic relief are antihistaminic medicines and topical nasal sprays along with avoidance of all forms of dusts.
