chardok1: I can do that.
surlethe: how do i pick my nose well?
chardok1: first, which finger do you use?
surlethe: usually the forefinger
chardok1: stop that.
chardok1: use your pinky. Must better penetration
chardok1: must=much
chardok1: okay.
chardok1: Now, there are two method which work well for clearing the nasal passages of obstructions
chardok1: MEthod one, which I like to call the sweep and clear.
chardok1: you simply move your pinky about inside the nose, sweeping away the offending boogers.
chardok1: MEthod #2 I call the lockon.
chardok1: that's where you have identified an obstruction which does not respond to method #1
chardok1: youdry your pinky off.
chardok1: make SURE the pinky is dry
chardok1: your nose should be running ever so slightly from the irritation of the sweep and clear.
chardok1: you find the offending booger with your pinky, then, you "lock on" to it. by pressing against it.
chardok1: and hold it for about 30 seconds or so (Longer if you feel the grrip isn't quite there.
chardok1: Then, quickly remove your finger from your nose, the offending booger should be firmly attached to your pinky.

chardok1: clearing mucual is a little tougher.
chardok1: This is the only time I will recommend drugs.
chardok1: Sudafed PE works wee.
chardok1: also, for temporary relief, rapid, pressurized evacuation of the one nostril and NOT the other, will work
elheru07: i discover that blowing in the shower helps well
elheru07: the steam and all
chardok1: I am a big fan of the coaches kleenex.
elheru07: jam one nostril shut with a finger, blow HARD, and repeat with the other
chardok1: midway through the shower, give each nostril a good blast.
elheru07: if the blockage is particularly irritating, do it again and then pick
Nerd359: External preasure works well in closing one nostril at a time
surlethe: excellent
surlethe: this is most useful
