    My thing is they say good sex can clear up allergies but what about bad sex?

    Oh yeah!

    Before I had septum surgery and I'd get constant congestion I thought that jerking off actually helped me to breath better. Honestly I actually thought it was placebo, nut apparently not!

    Hey! I remember you from a former life on reddit or lemmy or stackoverflow or something, and always thought of you as a decent person. Good to see you on lemmy.

    I appreciate that a lot! Right now is more just about coping, to be honest, but I'll get to equilibrium eventually haha

    It's amazing how well your body can turn off pains and symptoms just because "might be mating!"

    There's this old Finnish saying: "Nuha lähtee nussimalla" which translates roughly to "Fucking gets rid of flu". Guess there's some truth to that, then.

    That’s why, to this day, removal of a woman’s uterus is still called a ‘hysterectomy’. As in, removal of what causes hysteria.

    The Greek word ‘hystera’ means womb, or uterus, so ‘hysteria’ is literally just ‘uterus syndrome’. To take a broader brush, it kind of means ‘woman syndrome’.

    Surprises me we still use this naming convention in English, given the obvious modern connotations.

    Reminds me of my ex that would regularly need me to assist her with her stuffy nose as she had already discovered this effect. Do I ever miss that dusty apartment.

    Yeah they say an orgasm is like eight sneezes

    So other forms of orgasm offer no such relief?

    Why not write orgasm relieves sinus congestion? Do we need to codify how orgasm arrives? What about a stampede of angry zebras? That usually does the trick for me

    "Hey, babe. You ready for a good time?"
    "Oh. God. Honey...please, not now, I have a splitting headache. I've had this stuffed up nose and it feels like I haven't been getting enough air all day."
    "I have good news for you, and great news for me."

    Had a sinus congestion, rubbed one out, gone. Shit works.

  • source
  • [–] 7 points 5 months ago

    I thought everybody knew this...

    though it has a 50% chance of increasing your sinus pressure and make it feel like the only way to release the pressure is by scooping your brains out of your eye socket with a spoon.

    Hold up… is there a way to orgasm that doesn’t require sex or masturbation in some form?

    LPT: using a small vibrator on your sinuses can also help. It loosens the mucus up like shaking ketchup in a bottle.

    Tmi, but as I've gotten older, I do it more for the neck/back/leg/arm cracks and pops it can enable. Such relief. But my body is probably just broken.

    Not sure if you've got one, but I do believe I've heard it's supposed to be healthier for the prostate to occasionally empty that thing. Another part of the body that seems to break down as one ages. Don't judge me, It's for my health!

    I'm pretty sure I have at least one! It's been awhile since my ex went looking, but I assume it's still there.

    Orgasm can help a migraine too, or occasionally cause one. In unscientific terms I think of it as all the blood going to the other end of my body. Sinus drugs and migraine rescue drugs are vasoconstrictors, so it makes sense.

    Sex can also be a release of stress though, and sadly, relaxing after stress is a migraine trigger.

    Bullshit. If this was true, I'd have the clearest sinuses in the world.
