If your nose becomes really runny

Submitted by Mary Gold

If your nose becomes really runny, sniff a marker. The fumes will supress the nasal glands from producing mucus. It has basically the same effect as Vick's Vaporub.

I cant believe that it actually worked!! Ive been up all night on and off with this terrible runny nose. Benadryl wasnt working anymore, and I couldnt figure out what to do. I decided to look online and found this. I grabbed one of my Sharpies, and sniffed it.. instantly I felt better. Thank you for this great tip!!

Well, it worked great, after a few minutes my nose started to burn. i did a small report... actually just letting it run by sticking tissue/paper towel in your nose will absorb the snot and pretty much stop it. Which color marker works the best?

I had the cold bad, googled on how to stop a runny nose and came across this. I tried it an it worked. I still have to breath out of my mouth though which sucks but at least my nose is not running anymore.

It actually does work...
Ive been suffering a runny nose all day long... I googled for crazy remedies, since 3 different types of medicines did nothing, and found this.
I rarely believe what I see online, but I was ready to try anything.
It totally worked! No more drips! No more kleenex jammed up my nostrils!
