I get this, but it doesn't last that long after I finish eating so I just blow my nose once and it's done. Would suck to have this be something that lasts a while after eating though.
I'm eating spicy food every day for over a decade now and still get a runny nose almost every time.
"Rhinorrhea". Literally diarrhea for your nose. TIL.
So if I need to win a hotwing hotsauce challenge with something as satan as magnum 357 or sneaky like a carolina reaper sauce, I just need to drop a fuckton of Benadryl and smoke a pack before the competition so at least my runny nose won't give me away failing.
Besides I like bumming smokes from the Hat Man
Just keep in mind the vast difference between symptoms and causes. Many things, including many diseases, are symptoms caused by one of many possible things.
I only mention it because it seems even many doctors do not understand that there is often more to suss out than a fancy term for a diagnosis.
This phenomenon is why I like my Pho on the spicy side, especially if I have a cold. The spicier the better, cleans out the sinuses, lol
This is why I have to save Vietnamese food for like the twelfth date
Pho would be the first date and it's usually only spicy if you make it that way. ;)
A runny nose can also be caused by reflux, particularly if it happens after food that is not spicy such as fatty foods or big meals. It's often overlooked because it's not the typical heartburn symptom.
because the acid irritates the nasal passages too, causing hypersecretion.
Another related term I learned recently is exercise-induced rhinitis. I get that once or twice a year after jogging outside when there's a lot of pollen in the air
That sounds like pollen induced rhinitis.
also its a symptom of ashtma, ahstma isnt just wheezing and bronchial spasms, its also the rhinitis.
It's an allergy. It can trigger inflammation in upper airways, in the lower, or both. When you have asthma, that inflammation usually means fun times. My sister had this exact combo (pollen and fungal spores allergy, rhinitis, asthma). It's rough.
