Title: Why Is It so painful When Ewe almost Sneeze Then don't ?
Post by: neilep on 29/07/2015 18:12:25: Hi Gorgeous Scientists, ewe are all looking very luffley today !! [;)]

Not sneezing but almost !!...what's that all about eh ?

As a sheepy I of course luff sneezing to my hearts content but I really really really hate it when I almost sneeze but do not !!..it's painful innit ?

so....Why Is It so painful When Ewe almost Sneeze Then don't ?

As a firm believer in empirical study I sneeked into my neighbours house at 3am this morning and he gratefully gave no resistance as I bound and gagged him. His lack of protestation was pleasing to receive as I tied him to the chair and proceeded to pour pepper down his olfactory cavities. Such pleasure it was and he acknowledged this with tears of joy as the pepper worked its sneezy magic upon him. Upon my request as to wether it hurt or not when he almost sneezed a hundred times ,he failed to respond despite only having a couple of inches width gaffer tape securing his gob shut !...so..... no luck there ! I was frustrated by his lack of cooperation but grateful for his generosity as he allowed me to empty the contents of his fridge.

So, can ewe help ?

hugs and shmishes

mwah mwah mwah !!

neil

Answering this question should really be a breeze

PS - nice to see you Neil.

It's not always painful, perhaps when I'm having a bad sinus day it is !...It's still so frustrating though.

I'll buy ewe a pint !

cheers !!

I'm probably just a martyr to my nose

It is prudent to sneeze into one's elbow --- and to blast your knows with anti-histamine spray before scrubbing in to work in the OR during hay fever season.

Post by: Karen W. on 27/10/2015 10:00:39: WELL...I just saw this and will have to agree with one exception it hurts me every time.. but it's like a little sharp pain and a burning sensation at the same time with kind of a sharp stinging up in the top back of my nose..does not happen with a regular sneeze only the ones that come up and suddenly sleek away..... Nice to see you back Neil...
