Question : I get a burning/stinging sensation at the top of my nasal cavity when I bend down for about 3weeks.
Brief Answer:
Irritation, allergies, and chemicals can cause it.
Detailed Answer:
Hello dear, welcome to Ask a doctor's service.
I read your query and here is my advice.
I think the burning sensation in the nose may be a sign of irritation of nasal mucosa due to allergies, irritants or dried air.
Dried air, dust, pollution, or different allergens.
You may need to rinse the nose with saline water to remove allergens and to keep nasal passage moisturized.
Also humidity the air of your home.
Stay away from dry and hot weather.
If you develop other symptoms such as congestion and running nose antihistamines can be used.
Hope I have answered the question.
Let me know if I can assist you further.
