What are the correct ways to deal with nose hair

If we feel that our nose hair is too long, it is best not to pull it out with our hands. We can use some professional scissors for trimming nose hair. However, when using scissors to trim nose hair, be sure to remember to disinfect the scissors to prevent the bacteria on the scissors from invading our nasal cavity. When trimming nose hair, it is best to only trim the nostrils and not clean all the roots of the nose hair. This not only improves the aesthetics, but also prevents the loss of the important function of nose hair.

The influence of nose hair:

1. It can block dust, bacteria and small insects in the air, allowing the human body to inhale filtered clean air, deter small insects, and transmit information to the nervous system for cleaning; it can also allow local bacteria to enter the stomach with mucus and kill the bacteria with stomach acid.

2. It can maintain the temperature and moisture of the nasal mucosa, prevent the external cold air from being directly inhaled into the trachea, and prevent dry or atrophic rhinitis and nosebleeds.

3. It can protect the olfactory nerve from damage, allowing the nose to smell all kinds of odors.

How to deal with nose hair that is too long?

Nose hair can be trimmed with clean eyebrow scissors or a nose hair trimmer, and should be done in a well-lit place. The nasal mucosa is a very fragile part. If the tools used in the process of trimming nose hair are unclean and contain bacteria, it is easy to infect the nasal passages. If you are not careful, you will damage the skin or mucosa of the nasal vestibule, causing bleeding, and directly introduce bacteria into the wound, causing nasal furuncle.

Plucking nose hair is not recommended. If you remove nose hair, it will undoubtedly eliminate the defense of the nose. As a result, bacteria and dust will directly enter the lower respiratory tract and cause lower respiratory tract infection. In addition, after removing nose hair, the hair follicles are damaged, and bacteria take the opportunity to invade, which may cause nasal furuncle attacks. Pulling out nose hair weakens the ability of the nasal cavity to attack diseases.
