recommends the vaseline trick
but mothernature.com says not too.

It has worked for me for 15 years.

Medline from the NIH aslo recommends vaseline.

I’m surprised no one has asked…Are you on any AAS?

Doctor said absolutely not to use vaseline or anything petroleum based, hence the external use only. Do not listen to this advice. Go to a pharmacy and look for Ayr saline nasal gel with aloe vera. I buy mine at CVS.

Vaseline when it warms to body temperature vaporizes. When it does it can inhaled into the lungs where it may result in lipoid pneumonia. A saline spray is likely a better solution.
