    Won’t do much for the natural blocking. Notably is that this blocking is NOT caused by clogging. It’s your nose deliberating shutting one hole slightly.

    The reason this is because some smells take more exposure to detect while others can be detected immediately. The nose physically constricts airflow to accomplish this uneven speed on both sides.

      Is this person not referencing nasal irrigation like from a neti pot? Yes, it’s a very poor description if so, but it’s close enough lol
