<\/p><\/div>"} 1 We all "have to go", don't we? If you're not overly happy with picking your nose and sure don't want to even attempt doing it in public, the bathroom visit is your answer! What you're going to do in there is nobody's business! But you don't just have to go there to pick your nose in the "traditional" way... Here's a different approach:

<\/p><p><br \/>

<\/p><\/div>"} 2 Simply excuse yourself and when you're in there enjoying the privacy of a locked door, lean over the sink letting a small stream of lukewarm warm water run into your nose as you use a fingertip to "wash" and soften the mucous.

<\/p><p><br \/>

<\/p><\/div>"} 3 Use your finger/hand also to control the amount of water that enters your nose. You don't need much, no need to flush our your sinuses with fresh water (may sting, doing that is best with salt water and appropriate aids).

<\/p><p><br \/>

<\/p><\/div>"} 5 After rinsing and softening the not-so-welcome contents of your nose, you can either gently blow into one of your hands and immediately rinse the hand with the running water OR use toilet paper/paper towel/hankie to blow and wipe your nose in the ordinary way. Voila - you have a wonderfully clean nose and nice and as a bonus, moist mucous membranes!

<\/p><\/div>"} 6 If you easily get nose bleeds from picking or blowing your nose, this is a much more safe approach to cleaning your nose. If you continue washing the inside with your finger a little longer, you can easily remove the mucous with your fingertip (or a paper towel wrapped fingertip). Just be careful with your nails, you don't really need to use them when water has done the job of loosening those boogers of yours!
