★ When dealing with snot, blowing your nose or picking your nose both have some hidden dangers. ★ The best way to wash your nose is to use appropriate utensils and salt. Let your energy sink into your dantian, hold your breath, concentrate, and suddenly exert force! Phew~~~ Looking at the yellow and green tissue paper in my hand, I felt a sense of accomplishment and my breathing became easier... I believe that most of my friends who have a stuffy nose due to a cold solve the problem of runny nose in this way. Indeed, a stuffy nose is very uncomfortable, and many people will ignore it and pinch one nostril with their fingers and blow their noses hard. However, doing so may cause some problems. Tuchong Creative For example, blowing your nose hard can cause a sudden increase in nasal pressure, allowing infected mucus to enter the sinuses and cause sinusitis, or squeeze infected nasal secretions into the Eustachian tube and cause otitis media, or squeeze them into the nasolacrimal duct and cause lacrimal duct inflammation, or nasolacrimal duct blockage, etc. So, don't treat our delicate little nose too violently. Some friends may think, since I can’t blow my nose, then I can just pick it, right? The picture comes from the Internet In addition to being unsightly, this behavior may bring bacteria, viruses and other pathogenic microorganisms on your hands into the nasal passages, causing nasal infections. At the same time, the mechanical stimulation of the nasal mucosa caused by picking your nose can more easily cause nasal inflammation. If you accidentally break a blood vessel in the nasal cavity, it may cause nose bleeding, and it may also remove the nasal hair, reducing the nasal hair's filtering effect on harmful substances and causing nasal infections. In addition, because the nose is located in the medical "danger triangle", if the inflammation is not well controlled, it may invade the skull and cause meningitis and encephalitis, which is life-threatening. Some friends may feel angry when reading this. You don’t allow blowing your nose or picking your nose. What should I do if it’s hard to breathe in and out? ! Don’t worry, there is another trick, which is to wash your nose. First of all, it is best to use a professional nasal wash tool. You don’t have to choose an expensive electric model. The manual one shown in the picture below is also sufficient. Tuchong Creative Secondly, it is recommended to use 0.9% saline for nasal washing. The iodized salt we usually consume is not recommended for nasal washing, which may cause health risks. There are also expensive natural sea salt or hot spring salt. Medical research reports point out that its effect of rinsing the nasal cavity is not better than saline, and the feeling of using it is not more comfortable than saline. The method of preparing saline is to add 2.25 grams of nasal washing salt to 250ml warm boiled water. Warm saline at a temperature of about 37℃ is more suitable. Of course, there are also 0.9% saline solutions available on the market. You can wash your hair 1-2 times a day according to your needs, but the more you wash, the better. Cleaning the nasal cavity is particularly important for patients with nasal diseases who are exposed to a lot of dust in their working environment, such as coal miners, carpenters, cement workers, chefs, tailors, barbers, etc. In addition to cleaning the nasal cavity, when you have a cold and nasal congestion, you can also consider applying hot compresses to your nose, such as covering your nose with a hot towel for a while to help nasal circulation and restore ventilation. In our daily life, snot often clogs our nose, which may affect our daily life. I hope the above tips can help you.
