My mom has trouble breathing out her nose saying it's always dry and nothing comes out and will not stop saying she's scared bc it's uncomfortable and nothing will come out. I try to explain blowing and blowing will not help and she will just keep complaining and getting upset. she's also asking the same question over like if we go to store she's asks when we'll get there the whole way. No matter how nicely you explain anything she just keeps asking. One day she'll actually listen and try to help herself and couple days later it's non stop complaining and whining I think it's dementia but not sure... Anyone else experiencing this with a parent also??

I have allergies and asthma and you took the words out of my mouth. Excellent suggestions!
It's uncomfortable, but when I used to go to the ocean, that salt water would clear everything out of my sinus, just like the first day I met my true love in the water.. WE are still together snot n all.. I didn't realize it til I dipped down and whoosh... Embarassing moments in life..
Benedryl, but that may make it more dry, and her sleepy.
Use a warm wet wash cloth and place it over her face for the steam to get in..
Use a pot of warm warm water and place her face over the steam with a towel over her head may give her some relief.
give her a bit more vitamin C, Hot tea with lemon
Homemade chicken soup with a bit of hot pepper for taste, and perhaps enough to get the sinuses clearing.
