Publish Date： 2024/7/12
Excessive nasal mucus, which may seem insignificant, actually adds a lot of troubles to our lives, especially when we are prone to colds or allergies during seasonal changes, which is unbearable. Frequent blowing of the nose can even cause headaches, nosebleeds, and in severe cases, can even trigger otitis media. So, how can we alleviate this symptom?
Under what circumstances will mucus increase and flow out?
When external viruses, bacteria invade, or when exposed to allergens such as pollen, dust, dry and cold air, as well as other special factors, the nasal mucosa accelerates secretion, leading to an increase in nasal mucus that exceeds its self circulation capacity and has to flow out.
How to solve excessive runny nose?
1、 Improving the environment
For excessive nasal mucus caused by allergies, it is necessary to avoid contact with allergens, maintain indoor cleanliness, and reduce contact with irritants such as smoke, which can help reduce allergic reactions in the nasal mucosa and alleviate symptoms of excessive nasal mucus.
2、 Clean the nasal cavity
Cleaning the nasal cavity is an effective way to relieve runny nose. You can use physiological saline or specialized nasal cleaning solution for flushing, which helps to remove allergens, bacteria, and excess secretions from the nasal cavity, keeping it moist and unobstructed.
There are many benefits to cleaning the nasal cavity
Cleaning the nasal cavity, as a non pharmacological regulation, has the advantage of comprehensively and deeply cleaning the internal environment of the nasal cavity. It can effectively remove harmful substances such as dust, bacteria, viruses, allergens, etc. that accumulate in the nasal cavity, creating a cleaner and healthier breathing channel for the nasal cavity. Not only does it help prevent respiratory infections, but it can also significantly alleviate symptoms such as nasal congestion and runny nose in patients with rhinitis. In addition, cleaning the nasal cavity can promote blood circulation of the nasal mucosa, enhance the self-cleaning ability of the nasal cavity, and provide strong protection for the overall health of the respiratory system.
