Hot chili peppers get hot in the nose, rinse, apply cold compresses, etc., or seek medical attention.
Chili peppers contain capsaicin, which can stimulate the skin and mucous membranes in the nose to produce a burning pain. This often triggers an increase in nasal mucous membrane secretion, sneezing and tearing and other uncomfortable symptoms. With the flushing effect of secretion and nerve paralyzing effect, such discomfort will gradually reduce to disappear.
1. Use the appropriate amount of clean water to fully wash the nasal area in contact with chili peppers, this method can effectively reduce the concentration of chili peppers remaining in the nose, and remove the resulting nasal secretions. On this basis, local cold compresses can be used to reduce the temperature of the nose and weaken the sensitivity of the nasal nerves, thus relieving the symptoms.
2. Seek medical treatment: If the discomfort caused by chili peppers in the nose is not gradually relieved and persists or even worsens after the above treatment, you should actively seek medical treatment.
Excluding the existence of past history of allergy to chili peppers, this kind of situation can mostly be self-cured, if you continue to feel uncomfortable, it is recommended to actively seek medical treatment.
