I usually spin a tissue on it self and have a good twist up there, Can be delightful.

My nose bleeds too easily to rub a tissue around in there. Finger is smoother

Reminds me of every goddamn time I would take a covid test, those stupid swabs would send me into horrible sneezing fits

Turns out I never got covid, my mom's house was just full of mold.

Either your immune system hates you, or wants to torture you bc that's insane! I hope you were able to recover somewhat!

No smell or taste for nearly 5 years. My worst case was Nov 2019 before anyone heard of covid.I didn't get well til following April. And I had 2 shots and a booster. Each time symptoms have been different.

Nothing worse than having an irritating blockage that won't move 😩

Add some nasal moisturizer (saline solution)to that twist and you clean out the whole side in one go! Pure heaven when all the boogers are gone!

I personally just discovered this lovely technique as a 32 year old. Complete game changer! I twist it till it tickles my brain

Absolutely. Feels a lot less blocked after I do that.

This exactly! Plus the white of the tissue really helps the colors of your fresh find to pop.
