Cold is a common disease in our daily life, we are not unfamiliar with it, it can be said that most people have had a cold. Not long ago, I had a cold, a fever, a runny nose and chills. It took several days to take the medicine. Here's how a cold can cause a runny nose.

How can a cold have a runny nose

First: when we have a cold, we all have the feeling of stuffy nose, so we often twist our nose. At this time, we all have the feeling of acid rising. There is a nasolacrimal duct in the nose, which is the same as the lacrimal gland. Whenever your nose feels sour, it also stimulates the secretion of the lacrimal gland, so they flow into the nasal cavity through the nasolacrimal duct.

Second: in the cold caused by runny nose, which is already known to all of us. But why do some people have a cold and have a runny nose? That is because the cold when runny nose called acute rhinitis, this time nasal mucosa congestion swelling, gland secretion increased, so the formation of nasal mucus. At first, it was clear water like, and then it became purulent 3-5 days later.

Third: when there is snot in the nose, ask the child to blow it out by himself. To use the correct method of blowing your nose, press and hold one nostril and blow it side by side. At the same time, it should be carried out under the condition of unobstructed nasal cavity, otherwise it is not easy to blow out the nasal mucus in the paranasal sinuses, and the purulent nasal mucus in the nasal cavity can enter the paranasal sinuses, or it can enter the eustachian tube to cause otitis media.

matters needing attention

Wash your face with cold water every day, and wash your nostrils with a handful of water. That is, gently inhale a little water through your nostrils (pay attention not to inhale too much water to avoid choking) and blow it out again and again. Every night, soak your feet with hot water (the temperature is too hot to be tolerated) for 15 minutes. Pay attention to that the amount of water should not exceed your feet when soaking your feet, and your feet should be red after soaking, so as to prevent colds.
