Help with nocturnal cold nose
Those who, like me, suffer from an over-sensitive nose and polyneuropathy, a disorder of the peripheral nerves that lie outside of the brain and spinal cord (the central nervous system), may give relief to this tip.
First, however, I have to catch up with something and describe the problem, which may be familiar to one or the other: Feet, hands and tip of the nose are often / mostly above average cold. This can have many causes:
Most patients suffer from heart failure and polyneuropathy, it can also be hormonal, some drugs also trigger this feeling of cold and also a hypersensitive nasal mucosa, the "old-age nose" and an allergy may be the cause.
Everyone will have to find out for themselves what this might be. The problem I'm talking about here is just the cold nose and the almost painful inhalation of cold air through the nose before falling asleep due to polyneuropathy.
The average temperature in my bedroom is 17-18 degrees. I prefer fresh air through a tilted window with lowered exterior blind. I would be fine with the temperature if it were not for my ice-nose every night: As soon as I'm lying down, I have the feeling that the nostrils are dehydrating and inhaling is not difficult but extremely unpleasant. If I pull the blanket over my nose, breathing becomes immediately bearable. However, that hinders me reading and watching TV. Nasal ointment brought only an entertaining relief, after a short time she had moved in and the nasal inner walls again felt extremely dry when inhaling.
The solution: A mouthguard! Once folded and stretched over the nose, he presses the tip of the nose very lightly and immediately solves the problem of dry cold nose:
The tip of the nose feels instantly warm, the nostrils do not dry out and the inhalation is no longer perceived as unpleasant.
Since my favorite man next to me wearing an apnea breathing mask at night, the optics is inevitably not in the foreground with us?
