Hello,
The symptoms seem to be related to the cold.
I suggest to:
1- Avoid nose picking
2- Avoid blowing nose roughly
3- Use saline nasal spray to avoid dryness
4- Along with it steam inhalation with eucalyptus oil in it, it will help in making the secretion thin
5- Drink plenty of water and stay hydrated.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
