Medication and Health: Wrong drugs

Wrong drugs

Today, my nose was really stuffed up and I was out of cold medicine. I heard spices may help with this kind of problem. Unfortunately I thought red pepper would be a great thing to snort at the time. Not only is my nose still stuffed up but I also have immense nasal pain. FML

Today, I have a cold. Trying to clear out my stuffy nose, I tried putting mouthwash in my nose. Thinking it was an awesome idea, I put some more in. I then starting screaming in pain due to the extreme burning in my nostrils. FML

Today, I sneezed hard while eating some quite spicy potato chips at my friend's house. Some of the chips passed to the nasal cavity, and I ended up having to pick my nose for some pointy, spicy chips shrapnel. FML

Today, my nose was really stuffy. I heard somewhere that inhaling tea steam clears up the nose. While reading a magazine I inhaled my cup of green tea steam, without knowing that slowly I was moving my cup closer to my nose. Hot tea was sucked into my left nostril and burned the inside badly. FML

Today, I had a cold and was vomiting. I sneezed really hard, smacking my nose onto the toilet seat. I woke up a few minutes later with my nose bleeding, painful, and still stuffy. FML

Quite the catch

Today, and for over week, one of my nostrils has been stuffed to the point I can't breathe through it. I tried nasal spray and blowing it out, but nothing worked. I wanted to go to the doctor but first, I used a flashlight and a pair of tweezers. The giant, crusted booger bullet I pulled out was as long as my palm. FML

Today, I woke up with the worst cold, ever. My nose was running like crazy and my eyes were all puffy. So I stumbled over to the medicine cabinet and took what I thought were three tylenol cold's. Two hours later I'm still sick and I can't leave the bathroom. They were laxatives. FML

Today, while eating a Subway sandwich, I was watching a comedian on TV. As he said his signature line, I laughed hysterically and accidentally snorted a jalapeño into my nose. I spent the next 5 minutes trying to snort out the little piece that got lodged into my nostril. FML

Today, I learned how much it hurts to put a mint up your nose. FML

Today, I went over to my friend’s house while she was sick. In order to show me how bad her sense of smell was, she took a handful of VapoRub and rubbed it all over and inside of my nose then said, “Can you smell that? I can’t.” Yes, I can. But I can also feel my nostrils burning. FML.

Snug as a bug…

Today, my nose had been feeling weirdly uncomfortable all day. After I got home, I blew my nose really hard. I found that a bug had been resting inside my nose the entire time. FML

Spices may help, but you don't snort them dumb ass.

You are ******* dumb. You don't snort spices, you make something that has spices in them. Get Indian take out and order the spiciest dish they have.

That doesn't quite fit with 'treating the point of the ailment' does it? stuffing your mouth with a phaal (unsure if the OP is vegetarian so didn't presume to suggest a main ingredient) is hardly going to assist in anything but a really nasty experience of Indian food. That dish is normally reserved for annoyingly drunk last orders *men* trying to prove their alco-inspired-bravado / manhood.

it would work your mouth and nose are linked idiot, 40% of the taste of your food is you smelling it at the same time, I always use spicy food and I'm not a bravado male idiot.

Either take a hot shower, or you can use ammonia (for example out of glass cleaner). Not pure ammonia, just so you know. Damn I love Chemistry ;)

Errrm - not unless you want to have permanent damage / death, best stick to natures nurtures i.e. wasabi.

Never snort anything. Your nose is very sensitive (as I'm sure you've found out) and foreign objects don't belong in it. You're supposed to eat the spicy stuff, because your mouth and nose are connected by a permeable membrane.
