Your guide to Empty Nose Syndrome
Prevention, understanding, and an honest look at what is being tried. Research, airflow simulation, free tools and nasal prostheses, gathered by someone who lives with it.
Could it be Empty Nose Syndrome?
Rate each symptom from 0 (none) to 5 (as bad as it can be). Your score appears as you answer.
Is your air dry for your nose?
Type your city to see today's relative and absolute humidity. A priori, for ENS, it is the absolute humidity that matters, not the relative humidity shown by weather apps.
