Question: You're gonna get a laugh...How Do I fix this.?
so me and my friends were playing dare or dare (like truth or dare...only really dank dares) And I got one that was either snort a line of pepper (like regular table pepper) or a mint. So i chose the pepper and now 8 hours later my nose burns, and its all stuffy and gross! I kinda feel like I'm dying and I've gone through 2 boxes of tissues! What do I doooo.?Health Question & Answer
Answers:
You'll be fine. Just keep blowing your nose and try flushing it out with nasal spray or warm water. Your right it's just pepper not Coke. People are so uptight. I think it's pretty funny. I'm sure it does burn but it's nothing to be too worried about.Health Question & Answer
Your nasal passages are inflamed from the pepper and are producing histamine, which is in turn producing fluids to flush away the offending substance in addition to the swelling. If you have benedryl in the home take it right away to start the anti-histemic response and take it every four hours as needed. In addition, if you can get one of your so called friends to run down to the local health food store or pharmacy and get a Neti pot, do so. This is a small ceramic pot that is traditionally used to gently rinse out the sinus' with a mild saline solution. In your case the saline is optional but the water will help to flush out the pepper and soothe the tissues. Please think twice before you do something like this ever again. You could have done permanent damage.Health Question & Answer
The good thing is that time will fix your problem, but the bad thing is that time is the only thing that will fix your problem. Your nose is going to run till all the pepper is gone, but if you take an Allegra, or Zyrtec, or another anti-histamine it should be a little better. I would suggest one of the two anti-histamine that I mentioned.Health Question & Answer
You should get some saline nasal spray. It is mild enough to use for babies and it will clean the inside of your nose and sinuses. Spray it in there and breathe it in just like you did the pepper. That will help to flush it out. Yikes, what a dumb thing to do. Not funny. I hope this helps.
P.S. I see that other people suggested this, too. One more thought that just occurred to me is that you might try milk.
Whenever I eat really hot spicy food, I always drink milk with it, because it cuts through that burning sensation. If you have something you could use to spray it into your nose, then inhale the milk into the same place where the pepper is, that might help even more than the salt water (saline) spray.Health Question & Answer

wow, that was a phenomenally stupid thing to do.
I know you were having fun, and you didn't think much of it, but.... dude! seriously!
Okay, you're not going to like this, but it will work.
Get a bowl of room temp water (just from the tap). Put you nose in it, and snort it up!
I know its gross and it will be uncomfortable but it will work.
If this doesn't work for some reason or ou just can't bring yourself to do it, you may be able to fix the proble using a nasal spray from the chemist. Ake sure you tell them what your problem is because its possible a spray could irritate your nose further...
Good luck.Health Question & Answer

You pour it through one nostril at a time and it goes thorugh your nose and will cleanse it. Ohhh yeahh- it's called a Neti Pot!!! You can get one plastic or even ceramic doen't matter the cheaper the better.Health Question & Answer
You can either go to the store and get saline to clean out your nose,but it will still probably burn some or you can just sit and wait for it to clear itself. I hope you won't do this again because it can damage the lining of your nose which can cause you to get sick more and easier.Health Question & Answer
Silly rabbit. Keep blowing out the mucus. Your body is treating it as a foreign invader and producing mucus to fight it off. Keep the tissues nearby and start making some more delightful dares. Health Question & Answer
