My poor nose.. a bit gross - but how do I make it feel better?

about half an hour ago from feeling really well I suddenly started to feel sick -

A minute or so later, I vomited violently and it came so fast and suddenly most of it came out of my nose.

Nose now stinging and burning inside but otherwise I'm feeling absolutely fine again.

Any ideas what i can do please? It's a horrible sensation - I'm a bit concerned I was so sick so suddenly but much more upset about my nose!

It's stomach acid irritating you. You can flush it out but I've never been able to suss it out with the teapot thing.

Steaming might help this. Bowl of boiling water and a towel over your head if you don't have an actual facial steamer or steam room in your house!
Hope you feel better

I think there's a concept called nasal irrigation. I have never worked out how it works though...

Every time I'm sick it comes out of my nose. The worst bit is when there is a massive chunk which is stuck and you've either got to blow it out, or try to get it back down!! The burning feeling will pass.

You could use a neti pot (teapot thing) to rinse out, but you could also use a glass of warm water and sniff it up and blow it out. I'm not sure if the saline would irritate it. You could also put a little vaseline as a barrier inside your nostrils with a cotton bud.
