Ski nose

[allergyboy2001]

Do you or your friends etc. have noses that run in cold weather? So the nose has to be blown all the time? Supposedly one-third to one-half of humans experience this, if not more.

And are there any special names for this, where you live? In my part of the U.S. It is usually called "ski nose" - what happens when people are standing around in the snow, waiting for the ski lift. I also heard a new one the other day, "basketball nose" - "your nose is always dribbling", haha.

I'm always pulling out my large white handkerchief in the cold weather!

Only if its really cold then my large white handkerchief gets pulled out too

I was just thinking today how my nose always runs when it's cold! It just started to get chilly where I live. It's even cold in my house, and my nose gets so drippy. I am currently using a white mens handkerchief too!

Wow i would love to be in your house hankies106, then we can both use handkerchiefs together on our runny noses. I've just woke up with a stuffy nose and soaked a clean white handkerchief

Haha! That would be fun! Between the cold temps and my heaters being run for the first time this season, my nose is going crazy! Sounds like you could use another clean hanky! I hope you have some ready to go!

I know this phenomen and I think a lot of people have to do with this. But never thought about that this could have a special name. But I like Ski nose and Basketball nose ist funny too.

Not sure if it´s the same phenomen or another one: You certainly noticed the running noses, if people come from outside into a warm room in winter. For me as a nose blow fan it brought me a lot of observations in public transport.

Didn't know it had a name but i always love when it happens! Another perk of cold weather!

I have ski nose. My nose usually runs when the weather gets colder and I end up needing to blow it fairly often.

It would be fun, we'd end up using each other handkerchiefs. I just had large tissues when i got in the car but as soon as i got home i took out another large handkerchief from my drawer.

I "think" I have Ski Nose. It doesn't happen all the time but it does happen. Didn't know there was a name for it.

As someone who' does heater isn't working as well as it should, I can confirm this does happen to me.

Im currently shivering with a drippy nose that needs blowing, but like the bad girl I am I decide to just sniffle as opposed to blowing it out.

Better to give it a blow than to sniffle 🤧🤧

Was too early in the morning to care. Besides, a nice warm shower cleared my sinuses right out.

Probably not, just grogginess makes me forget about it is all.

I seem to be the only one who doesn't have any white hankies. All mine are different kinds of blue plus a few grey or red plaid

This is me. My nose definitely runs when it gets cold and just recently if I discovered if I go inside after being out in the cold for a while, I'll sneeze. This actually happened to me last week when I was walking to the mall and it was pretty cold and windy out. As soon as I got into Target I sneezed a few times and there was a little bit of a wet mess.  normally I would be super embarrassed but this time around I was too tired to care so I pulled a Kleenex out of my bag and gave a few very wet blows. 🤧

Is that quite big? Like more of a bandana size or is it standard mens hanky size?

Your hankies sound fun though! White can be plain and boring, but a nice disguise if you're out in public and don't want people to know you're using a handkerchief. They can be classy too! But can also get dirty quickly. Definitely a collection staple though! I recommend trying one out and see how you like it!

Colored handkerchiefs are SO much fun! I love dark blue and navy blue. I don't mind blowing super hard into them because you can't tell how dirty they get. Same with bandanas. You gotta try to get some!!!!

Nah I've had some before and somehow found the colour really clinical or something. Now a few are like plain dark/light blue, a couple plaid but most look pretty similar to the one in your profile photo.

I guess that looks more clearly like a hanky to me and if I'm using one I want people to know it's a hanky - prouder of using them than tissues 😂

Yeah they are fairly big and i would say that they are more bandana size too.

With the dark blue and navy blue i did have some anumber of years ago then i decided i needed some larger handkerchiefs so i took them to charity shops. Im now on the lookout for blue larger handkerchiefs the same size as my white ones.

I get this but I've never heard it be called anything.
