Sneeze looking at light

Common Questions and Answers about Sneeze looking at light

sneeze

Avatar m tn I have tried snorting pepper, snuff etc and looking at bright light - no Sneeze, not even a desire to sneeze. I have a number of neuro symptoms, no gag reflex, partial paralysis of throat, difficulty swallowing, Exotropia (eyes constantly tend to cross) along with muscle cramps, pain, weakness and fatigue - all progressive. Neuro says MS but never had a positive MRI. My question: Is anyone aware of a neuro/muscular disease with one of the signs being the loss/lack of the sneeze reflex?
Avatar n tn after i sneeze or laugh ,i get a a bright light in my vision and that is all i can see for about 30 to 40 seconds then my vision comes back and i get a headache
Avatar m tn I will sneeze every time, and if I need to egg the sneeze on, I will look right at the light until I sneeze. If I feel a sneeze coming on, I will either look at the sun or a bright light in a room. I rarely sneeze in a low light situation. My doctor thinks I am nuts, as does my opthamologist. However, my Mom did this (but not my Dad) and both of my daughters do it too. My Mom says that her Mom did it as well. It's very strong reflex and completely uncontrollable.
Avatar m tn I get dizzy when looking down when reading and then I get nausea. I also get light headed when I cough or sneeze . Is this normal for chiari. Forgot to mention I recently noticed my bottom lip goes numb.
Avatar m tn I have tried many other things to make myself sneeze, such as plucking eyebrows, breathing in cold air, sniffing pepper or spices, looking at bright lights, chewing gum, eating chocolate, faking a sneeze, tilting my head back, but none of them work! I have done Google searches for this problem countless times. Some people have said it could be that the trigeminal nerve (which controls sneezing) might not be functioning properly, and some people have said it could be a brain tumour or lesion.
Avatar f tn Sorry for the late reply. Sadly, I'm still feeling the same way. However, I did manage to sneeze a small number of times between now and my last post, and I've found that sometimes when I look at up at the light in my bedroom JUST as the sneeze begins, the sneeze completes. Hoping someone can shed some light on this issue.
495284 tn?1333894042 Why do we sneeze during and after withdrawals??? Many say they sneeze but dont know why.
1415174 tn?1453243103 So for the next couple of months I realized if I stared at the sun by day, or at a bright light at night, just when the spots arrived, it would stop my migraine dead in its tracks. The important thing was to do this the minute I saw the spots/aura. If I was too late, the migraine would develop.
Avatar n tn i think is because of spit when you sneeze. sometimes when you sneeze you accidently spray some out and that goes into the air. after few seconds you'll be able to smell something smelly. I've experienced that when i sneezed in the car and lots of droplets from my sneeze went everywhere inside the car.
7595610 tn?1397467772 I was just wondering after I looked at my light to bring on a sneeze while I was doing research on 1) how rare Chiari is; 2) how few people have surgery for it; and 3) How rare a Lacunar Infarct is that's not related to hypertension is. It got me thinking about all of the things that I experience each day that are off the radar of traditional medicine.
Avatar f tn Same happens to me. I noticed if I'm curled up and comfy and I sneeze, it hurts. I have to straighten my legs immediately when I know I'm going to sneeze. 12xs Better.

4310181 tn?1357690214 I am 32 wks and every time I turn around I find I am leaking pee, every time I cough, sneeze or move the wrong way. I never had this happen with my 2 previous pregnancies and figure it is because there is not much left of my bladder or even room in my stomach but it is getting annoying. I was wondering if anyone had any tips or suggestions.
Avatar f tn m 13w1d nd have been fighting a killer cold but multiple times yesterday and today when I sneeze I see a little. I thought that was something that happens in the third trimester not this early...?
Avatar f tn But got the sneezes at the min and every time I sneeze I nearly wee . Anyone else have this problem ?
6674791 tn?1396215150 Im 38 weeks and I have had a sinus cold throughout my pregnancy so I know how the sneezing goes no medicine that my doc say i can take have help at all for me so I sneeze a thousand time a day and blow my nose a hundred times I have worn a panty liner every day since I been pregnant lol
7282682 tn?1397237735 Nonights, thank you for giving me a good laugh this early in the morning! I think you are correct about that. Sneezing just means your body is doing what it's supposed to be doing...getting rid of the crap and healing. It's a good thing, although annoying at times. I've always been a 'sneezer'. I have debilitating allergies to just about anything you could think of, so it's year round.
Avatar f tn Co-incidentally as the spots arrived, I also felt like sneezing, and what I normally do when I get the urge to sneeze, is look into a bright light, this helps the sneeze come quickly. So I naturally glanced at the sun for about 3 or 4 seconds. This made me sneeze, but what it also did is made my spots go away. So here I am waiting for my migraine to come but it never came. I thought this was weird as I would always get a migraine after the spots.
Avatar f tn Since 2 hrs it pains in my lower abdomen when i sneeze. Uncomfortable pain which lasts for long time. Can this pain be due to sneezing or should i be worried. Plz advice.
Avatar f tn Everytime I sneeze i get a sharp pain in my pelvic area.. only 13 and 4. Any ideas what this could be?
Avatar m tn hello everyone Almost 5 days back I had flu and running nose. For this problem, I have taken medicine which I also use before sometime for the same problem. Each tablet contains 5mg Loratadine & 120mg Pseudoephedrine Sulfate. In past, it gives me good results but this time after taking this medicine my flu is batter but I can't sneeze. I have tried almost all methods like "Wiggle a tissue in the nose", "Look up toward a bright light", Sniff a spice etc but all waste.
Avatar f tn ve had horrible pain in my lower abdomen an pelvic bone I literally feel like the baby is coming out everytime I cough sneeze etc. Also I have light pink bleeding an I've lost alot of what I think may b my mucus plug it looks like small pieces of skin. I have RH factor blood an had a low placenta.
Avatar m tn t and I feel the sneezes coming one, it is embarrassing as I sneeze at LEAST 15 times! Hard sneezes too! Seriously, if anyone figures it out post it here! I think there is some preservative in the food that is used at most/all restaurants. Just wish I knew exactly what it is so I could avoid it. This discussion is related to <a href='/posts/show/504215'>why does my boyfriend sneeze after eating?</a>.
Avatar n tn Me too. That's why I'm looking into this, once again. I even had a sonogram, looking for something. I think it's muscle ligaments or scar tissue from c-section. Remember when you were pregnant and the ligaments stretched, ouch. My pain is similiar to that. The doctor said it may be scar tissue as well. Have you had a c-section or 2?
