I'm feeling really worried because for the past couple of days, I've been dealing with a dry nose and now it feels super itchy. I don't have a cold or any other symptoms like a headache or fever, but I'm breastfeeding my baby and I'm concerned if these could be symptoms of a virus. Can you give me some advice on what this might be and what I should do? I'd really appreciate your help!

I'm really struggling with a runny nose that's been going on for like a year now. Whenever I take citrazine, it works for about three days, but then the symptoms just come back. I remember using Efcorlin nasal drops around 10 years ago for the same issue, and it helped a lot. Is there any way I can get a prescription for it online? It's been quite frustrating to deal with this on a regular basis.
