Sneeze reflex action
Common Questions and Answers about Sneeze reflex action
sneeze
Now I can’t sneeze at all and when I feel the urge to sneeze, I will think that “I’m gonna sneeze, I’m gonna sneeze” and then I couldn’t because I kept thinking about it. Now I have headache, ear and eye pain which I think might be due to lack of sneeze. I’m always constantly thinking of not being able to sneeze and I find it hard not to not think about it. If there’s anyone facing the same problem as me please get into contact with me. I want to talk to someone.
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.
Hi all,
This will sound extremely bizarre, but I would be grateful if anyone is able to shed some light on this very annoying thing that I am experiencing. It all started when I rubbed my eyes in my mirror 2 years ago, and then my eyes started stinging really badly, and I found I couldn't sneeze for about 2 weeks.
For about 2 years now, I have been experiencing an inability to sneeze naturally. The sneeze builds up, but it never completes.
I had the same worries cux i actually had the flu. But u shoukd be ok just remeber to keep hydrated and try to get some rest. The saline sprays might help reduce some of the sneezing! Hope you feel better!
For about a month, anytime I bend over, sneeze, cough or laugh I get a sharp pain in the top of my head. It only lasts until the action is done and doesn’t continue to hurt. As soon as the pressure is released from the action the pain is gone. This is also accompanied by a full feeling in my inner ear and what feels like an abundance of pressure on the right side of my head. I’ve seen the ENT and he says sinuses are perfect. What could this be?
Rather like a spine sneeze, actually - the way the itching in your nose becomes a sneeze is very similar to the onset of this symptom.
When it was really bad, my arms would pull up into a preying mantis position. I thought spinal myoclonus because of the description - that it's a slow onset that builds up.
Well, I did more research on it, and kept reading the We Move website about different kinds of myoclonus, trying to track it down.
My husband had a couple occasions occur where he sneezed and lost control of his legs. He basically sneezed and then he collapsed to the floor. He was still conscious but he says that his legs went numb and that's why he fell back onto his butt..hard!!!! Today I heard him sneeze and when I came around the corner he was bent over and was walking like he was 105 years old with a cane. Not trying to be funny but he was struggling to walk for a couple of seconds after the sneeze.
I also notice this pattern sometimes when I cough or sneeze, but not always, thank you for the insight.
I was recently tested at St Johns Hospital in Phoenix AZ with what they said was a standard HIV 1 & 2 Test with Reflex to Western Blot Confirmation. This was done after 6 months nearly 0 exposure according to my doctor. My exposure or worry of exposure was french kissing a stranger.
I have 2 questions... what kind of test is this? is it an ELISA that looks for antibodies? 2.) can I say it is conclusive and I do not have HIV?
Usually allergens are small molecules which can penetrate the layers of the skin and sweating is known to enhance this action.
Topical lotions such as calamine decreases pain and pruritus. Systemic antihistamines (antipruritics) such as hydroxyzine or cetirizine against prescription may be helpful. Even addition of corticosteroids has possible benefits.
Talcum, Aluminum Chloride with Ethyl Alcohol, Anticholinergics or Propantheline Bromide at bedtime can be used against prescription.
Could the sneeze have been the fatal action? Curious as to if the sneeze had not occured, would it just have prolonged his chest pain and the inevitable were to happen anyways. was just wondering if the 'sneeze" expedited things?
One more question thats bothering my mother. When he passed, he wet his pants. I keep trying to tell my mother this is a normal occurence but am looking for somethign more "detailed" to explain to her.

Occasionally when I sneeze I become very itchy all over my body (legs, arms, torso, but nothing from neck up). What is this? Quick Googling kind of hints toward allergies, but I am not very sensitive to them as is. This has been happening to me as long as I can remember, yet I've never seen or heard of anyone having this. It always goes away in a minute or so. Just weird. I get it maybe once every couple months, not sure if it's related to allergy season. Any ideas from you all?
