Any advice on medication to promotes mucus (secretagogues)? Pilocarpine/cevimeline

Looking to combat nasal dryness, topicals don't really do it for me and believe me I've tried them all. I feel like better secretion would go a long way for me because staying moist is when I feel the most relief. Initial Google search says Pilocarpine or cevimeline or maybe even varenicline nasal spray (Tyrvaya). Anyone have experience/advice with any of these?

Turbinate outfracture complication?

The turbinate on my left side (1st pic) is pinned up against the outer wall after my surgery as compare to my right (2nd pic) which has a little air gap underneath the curl. ENS issue are much worse on my left side and I'm convinced this might be a potential culprit. It remains relatively unchanged throughout the nasal cycle and will trap mucus in there and cause pressure. I mentioned to my ENT and he's unconvinced it causes issues and is skeptical to perform an infracture on me to correct. Anyone else have insight or had something similar?
