Ouch!

I have a cold, so I took some nasal spray. Unlike all other times I've taken it; this time burned like hell!

I have used this brand for years and it should definitely not be doing that to me.

I've noticed that my mucus membranes get dry when I take Ritalin. It just so happens that Otrivin; the brand of nasal spray I use, is also a vasoconstrictor.

I suspect that my nose and throat are swollen, but also dry, and thus sensitive. Maybe I'll just make tea and inhale it instead.
