If you have a cold and your all alone do you stick tissues up your nose cause it wont stop running?

Answer 1

I do that even if I'm not alone. A few years ago, I had to do that in one of my college classes, sitting right in the front of the room. And in both nostrils. I looked like a walrus!

But, hey, its better than spreading germs everywhere and my nose didn't get sore from rubbing it over and over.

Sometimes you just gotta do what you gotta do.

Answer 2

Yes. However, sticking tisues up your nose does not give long term relief. When the tisues get wet, you will need to replace them. It is an endless cycle. If you do want long term relief then I urge you to get some nasal spray.

Answer 3

tea tree oil helps a lot for runny nose, that works for me,
I can use one box of tissue and still have runny nose, 3 drops of tea tree oil in cotton, runny or blocked nose for faster relief.

Answer 4

It may not be pretty, but I do that, got it from my grandfather who would do that with people around. Whatever works!!

Answer 5

yes. :)
