1. What Causes a Runny Nose During a Cold?The cause of a runny nose when you have a cold is a virus that lodges itself inside makes its way to the membranes of the nose.
It multiplies and creates an inflammation reaction, which in turn produces excessive mucus in the nose and chest. Your body sends white blood cells to destroy the virus, and this cellular skirmish results in a runny nose. Just keep blowing your nose to remove it all.
This is typically the sign of a cold or flu. It needs to run its course, so the usual remedies of plenty of rest and fluids apply, but also keep blowing into a tissue to remove the germs from your body.
Though it isn’t exactly known why, the first step is to remove allergens and irritants from your home by cleaning and dusting thoroughly. Avoid environmental pollutants such as smoke and harsh chemical cleaning products. If the issue does not clear up within a month, talk to your doctor.
This is usually a result of a virus from a cold or flu. A runny nose doesn’t always flow out of the nostrils; it can also flow into the back of the throat (post-nasal drip), which often results in sore throats. It will pass once the illness resolves, typically within seven days.
Quite often, getting a runny nose while eating is the result of eating spicy or hot food; the medical term for it is gustatory rhinitis. It’s unclear why this happens, but it’s nothing to worry about.
