Today I learned that if you’re coughing from post-nasal drip, blowing your nose helps.
I always thought of the front-of-nose and back-of-nose snot as being separate pools. I figured if I could breathe through my nose, and it wasn’t dripping from the front, I didn’t need to blow it. But no, it’s all the same pool. If it’s overflowing in the back, emptying it through the front stops that.
This allergy season is really nasty. My sinuses are definitely not happy, bending forward gives me a nasty headache. Every day around 17:00 my throat starts swelling and being rather painful. And I am generally tired.
