I've put petroleum jelly on the inside of my nose for years to relieve dryness. Petroleum jelly is generally safe to use. Rarely, however, inhaling fat-based substances (lipoids) â such as petroleum jelly or mineral oil â for prolonged periods can cause lung problems. Typically, petroleum jelly applied to the inside of the nostrils drains down the back of the nose with normal nasal secretions and is swallowed. Rarely, small amounts of the jelly can migrate into the windpipe (trachea) and lungs. Over many months, the jelly can accumulate in the lungs â leading to potentially serious inflammation known as lipoid pneumonia. In some people, lipoid pneumonia causes no signs or symptoms.
