yes, you lose 10 brain cells
By holding a sneeze in, you can damage the blood vessels in your eyes, nose, and in your throat. You can also cause your eardrums to be damaged.
Yes, holding in a sneeze can potentially cause harm. When you suppress a sneeze, the pressure can build up in the nasal passages and sinuses, which may lead to injury, such as a ruptured eardrum or damage to blood vessels in the eyes or brain. In rare cases, it could also result in other complications, like a pneumothorax, due to the pressure being redirected to the lungs. Therefore, it's generally better to sneeze openly into a tissue or your elbow.
I haven't seen any information relating to holding a sneeze and killing brain cells by doing so. However, a sneeze is your body's way of trying to get rid of an irritant as in the form of allergies, or a cold or flu virus. Holding a sneeze is not a good idea as whatever irritant sitting inside your nose will not be evacuated and may get into the sinuses and other airways and cause infection.
I believe in can cause a hernia. That means your guts will spill out of your abdomen like a tipped-over bowl of spaghetti.
While there are no widely reported cases of someone dying specifically from holding in a sneeze, doing so can lead to serious health issues. Holding in a sneeze can cause increased pressure in the head and neck, potentially leading to complications such as ruptured blood vessels or ear damage. In rare instances, individuals have experienced adverse effects, but death from this action is extremely unlikely.
Holding in a sneeze is like holding down the top of a jack-in-the-box. Why not just let it out? The air expelled by sneezes is said to travel up to 100 miles per hour; holding in a sneeze could cause fractures in the nasal cartilage, nosebleeds, burst eardrums, hearing loss, vertigo or detached retinas. Therefore it is best to let your sneeze fly (yet shielded by a hankie, preferably). Plus, your body is trying to clear out your pharynx-and that's a good thing. To help the sneeze come out, look at a bright light. This stimulates the optic nerve, which crosses wires with the sneeze center. The added irritation of an adjacent nerve will get the sneeze going.
About 17,000,000 brain cells die every time you sneeze. Does not sound like a lot but you sneeze a lot throughout your lifetime.
Pepper, dust, and even cold air are compounds that can cause a person to sneeze. Any compound that irritates the lining of the nostrils can cause a sneeze.
Holding in a sneeze is unlikely to tear the diaphragm, but it can cause other issues such as increased pressure in the chest and potential damage to the throat or ears. The diaphragm is a strong muscle, and while it can be strained, a tear is rare. However, it's generally advisable to let sneezes occur naturally to avoid complications.
when something itchy or something or smell get close to your nose you sneeze
No. Dust, allergies, or a cold can cause a cat to sneeze, just like humans.
Allergies could cause a person to cough or sneeze whenever a cat is around them.
