Dude, this is not an exaggeration. I can't believe how deeply I relate to this shit.
My nose is pretty much blocked since 2017 and the memories of free breathing are fading away slowly...
Ever thought about deviated septum
It's apparently slightly deviated, but my doctor says it's not strong enough to negatively impact my breathing. Nevertheless he said I could get surgery if I want to, but with no guaranteed improvements. I think this should be my very last resort.
As an adult I’ve often tried to be conscious of when different aches are not happening. Maybe it’s a sign of getting old.
Yeah, I've done that before. I usually just drink a big glass of water though, that usually works.
Wow your nose is well domesticated! No way I fix mine with a drink. Antihistamines help but it's a tough battle.
If I have clear sinuses but I obstruct one of my nostrils, I breathe out of the other one and under no duress I feel calm and display no need to unobstruct the other nostril.
If one of sinuses and nasal passages is fully stuffed such that no air can go through, catch me flipping on my sides an laying upside down so I can open up a small sweet path for fresh air.
Cant be only me right?
My nose was entirely blocked yesterday, and I was sitting here reading this meme realizing I was taking it for granted.
My nose is clear, thanks for making me feel gratitude
I had this exact thought back in high school, and for some reason I still remember it every so often and just sit there, thankful I can breathe so well in that moment.
I was an asthmatic child. Still am as an adult but I sort of out grew it in my teens. It still pops up when Im sick, or when air quality dips, or if I get allergies, or its there but Im used to it and it's not as bad as when I was young.
As a kid though oh man I would frequently come down with colds and frequently have a clogged nose. It was not uncommon for me to breath through one nostril for a day, then it might shift later that evening and no amount of blowing or picking would save it. Then of course when I was sick which again was frequent I would be a mouth breather.
I still loudly sneeze through my mouth as an adult, not because I want to make a scene but because sneezing through my nose would hurt and lead to two snot trails flowing down my face.
Its funny now that I think about it I usually dont carry tissues with me but as a kid I always had a pack in my pocket because snot was an inevitability.
Brandy is your friend. Well, for one night it's your friend and the next day you'll feel awful but at least you'll have the satisfaction of knowing it was self inflicted rather than some poxy self-replicator making you feel bad.
Same with sore throat
stuffed nose leads to sore throat though, inevitably. cos you breathe through your mouth and your throat dries out
My life changed when I discovered I need to put a pot of water on my radiator at night. I was getting a sore throat so damn often, then one day it just stopped. Some serious quality of life improvement.
Afrin works for a couple days, just don't keep using for longer or it'll be worse.
It works by constricting the blood vessels in your nose. Very effective but there can be a rebound effect.
I don't understand, you can just breathe through your mouth though?
For non-mouthbreathers, that's actually quite unpleasant.
then your mouth will get all dry and if you're sick you've probably got a sore throat too, the #1 time I try not to breath through my mouth
the worst part is when it happens while you sleep
Mine's never not been blocked
