Holding in your sneezes really can hurt you

Holding in a sneeze by closing both the nose and mouth can redirect powerful air pressure into the ears, throat, neck, or chest. Although serious injuries are rare, experts recommend releasing sneezes hygienically into a tissue or elbow.

同时捏住鼻子并闭紧嘴巴来憋喷嚏，可能使强大的气压转向耳朵、喉咙、颈部或胸部。虽然严重损伤很少见，但专家建议用纸巾遮挡或对着手肘，以卫生的方式让喷嚏自然打出。
