The majority of ENTs don't recognize ENS.  You can't diagnose ENS by visual inspection, the nose often looks normal.  Sadly, telling a patient to see a psychiatrist who in fact has ENS is common.  The dryness is likely due the surgery.  Do you know what was done during the operation on his nose?  Do you have a CT scan of his nose after the operation?   Here is a list of common symptons https://nasalcripple.com/ens

Actually anxiety, depression, and sleep problems are very common in ENS patients.

I recommend you look over my ENS getting started guide https://nasalcripple.com/nowwhat 

The first few months of ENS can be very hard adjusting to difficulty breathing.
