When I blow my nose, my eye feels weird?!
Question: When I blow my nose, my eye feels weird?
So I've been blowing my nose a lot lately because I have a cold, but since this morning whenever I blow my nose my left eye feels real weird. when I do blow my nose, my left eye feels like if I blow too hard it will pop out. Is this normal? weird? Should I see a doctor? Any advice would be tremendously appreciated :)
Answers:
There are routes by which air can pass from the nasal passage to the eye socket in some people. I have heard of some people who can even blow out a candle from their eye. I think there would be a risk of eye infection if that happens, especially when you already have a cold. At least I think you should see a doc, if you notice any eye irritation or discharges, etc. But to err on the side of safety, by seeing a doc before that happens, may be even better.
