![]() QUOTE Folk remedies for sneezing are common. Among them are the following: Wiki's View on SneezingApply upward pressure to the bottom of your nose. Tickle or press against the top of your mouth with your tongue. Looking up with your eyes but not your head. Hold open your eyelid. As previously mentioned, it is almost impossible to sneeze with your eyelids open. Holding your breath for long enough when one feels a sneeze coming will usually prevent a sneeze. Sneezing requires air to expel, and simply eliminating the air until the nervous response goes away means no sneeze. This is immensely preferable to blocking the nose, which can result in damage to the delicate structures of the inner ears, or redirecting the sneeze through your mouth, which can result in the oral ejection of phlegm and saliva. I don't think it's a problem unless you hold your nose. |
