shanes teeth Posted April 25, 2010 Share Posted April 25, 2010 Most of the blockage isn't actually snot, it's swelling of the cells which line the airways in your nose. Around the bridge of your nose the airways are very narrow normally and it doesn't take much swelling to have the air flow significantly reduced or the nose blocked completely- there's no snot there, just swelling. The menthol compounds in Vicks, Olbas Oil and menthol sweets act as decongestants in two ways. Firstly they enable liquefaction of mucus meaning that it drains as normal (we have plenty of mucus when we don't have a cold, but it's liquid and drains down the back of your throat without you even noticing it) and they also act as an anti-inflammatory for the cells lining your airway, thus making you magically able to breathe again. If you were looking for a disgusting answer about snot then I'm very sorry to have been so sensible. Thank you Doctor! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rich Siddall Posted April 25, 2010 Share Posted April 25, 2010 The snot gnome takes it. He lost out on the tooth franchise to a fairy so was forced to take the position of snot collection. I'm not sure what he does with it. Commercially it must be worthless which is why we are not recompensed with cash. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
