Health knowledge about nose

Paying attention to nasal health care can prevent diseases.

In a modern metropolis, people inevitably have to deal with the air polluted by dust, sulfur dioxide and other wastes. Pollutants in the air are constantly devouring the health of nasal mucosa.

Dust in the atmosphere leaves too much dirt in the nasal cavity. Without effective cleaning, acne and freckles make the nose unrecognizable. Therefore, always "bathe" your nose.

Here, it is especially recommended to give your nose a cold bath, especially when washing your face in the morning. Washing the nose several times with cold water can improve the blood circulation of nasal mucosa, enhance the adaptability of the nose to weather changes, and prevent colds and various respiratory diseases.

External nasal massage

This method uses the thumb and forefinger of the left hand or right hand to hold both sides of the nasal root and pull it down hard, from top to bottom 12 times.

Pulling the nose in this way can promote the blood circulation of nasal mucosa, which is conducive to the normal secretion of nasal mucus.
