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 having a tough time with my headphones. I can't manage to keep them on for more than 5 minutes because they cause discomfort and sometimes even a slight pain in my ears and throat. It's okay when I'm not using them, but I can't figure out if I will ever be able to use headphones again without this issue. I've noticed dryness in my ears, so I tried using a few drops of coconut oil which helps temporarily, but then after 30 minutes of headphone use, my ears are dry again and the discomfort returns. Could it be the headphones causing the dryness, or is there something else going on? I'm really looking for a permanent solution to this ear and throat discomfort from using headphones. Any suggestions?

Normal, nothing to worry ok.
