I am on my 3rd month of accutane and one symptom I have is a very dry nose, It gets so dry the front inside of my nose will peel and I accidentally peel the skin and it hurts. Earlier I didn t have a bloody nose but I was cleaning my nose with a tissue when a long bloody string was pulled from nose and it was dry but with a liquid covering, is that normal?
Hi, For dry nose you can use normal saline nose drops. 10 drops in each nostril 5 times a day for as long as you want. you can also use a humidifier in your room. Avoid using air conditioning or fan. Regards, Dr Rajkishori Godhi (MS ENT)
