Unable to sneeze

[neil991]

I did a back flip in the swimming pool and ended up injuring myself in the neck and upper body area. Although my injury seems completely healed, I am unable to sneeze since the incident.

Is it possible I may have damaged some nerves near my neck area?

I have not sneezed since a month now. I am in good health. But the more I read about this issue online, the more stressed I am getting. I hope this is harmless and its okay if I am unable to sneeze my entire life.

Is someone else also going through the same issue? Has anyone solved it with any medication? Please help me clear my anxiety.


Warm regards
Neil

Okay that's something..
But don't worry. This isn't a big problem it's completely harmless.
We sneeze to let the bad irritating dust out. Well, you can try to sneeze by looking up the bright sun it actually helps to sneeze. :)

Thank you for messaging. I hope so too. Infact someone who went through this issue also messaged me today and told me its psychological and that I should forget about it.

Anyways, hope you are right.

it seems like your problem isn't really a problem. not sneezeing is NOT life-threatening. you have nothing to worry about
