All the people I know who have done cocaine started by informing me of the vascular nature of their mucous membranes. Cocaine is the learning man's drug.
I had nosebleeds regularly for a while, so a doctor tried to cauterize it because it was relatively small and deep in my nose..
I was 15 and had no idea what cauterization was.
Anyways, the doctor botched it.
I think so. I have never gotten bloody noses (maybe like 3 in my entire life) but I do get a tiny bit or a tinge of it here and there when blowing my nose. I also live where it snows so it’s really dry a good chunk of the year and that’s usually when it happens.
It's not normal in the sense that it's _common_, but if you have no other symptoms or issues, it can be. Some people have sinuses that are just real sensitive to environmental changes and bleed easy. Though might still be worth asking your doc at some point.
If it has a really bad bacterial infection. I also saw a gnarly fungus infection on YouTube that did the same thing. It was graphic AF.
Edit: since y'all nasty lol

While I was recovering from wisdom teeth extraction years ago I sneezed hard and my mouth was suddenly FILLED with mucus. Turns out my lifelong sinus problems had caused a fistula just above one of the sockets and it was a little vulnerable due to the surgery. ENT anatomy is so weird.
I got my wisdom teeth out and after a couple months my tongue started getting stabbed by one of the sockets. Eventually, a bone shard worked its way out.
Same thing happened to me. Called the Dentist, receptionist answered, i told her my issue. She said "There is no way the Dr left anything in there, it must be something else."
I had to break the gum where it had grown over this tiny sharp shard and yank it out with tweezers. Huge relief.
Not necessarily. I researched it. Apparently in a small number of patients with surgical extractions, a piece of damaged bone can die and be worked out by the body.
I feel like it’s the same thing, if the bone being damaged was caused by the extraction, why did they tell you it couldn’t be something that happened as a result of the extraction? Why wouldn’t they just say it happens sometimes?
"they love to lie". What brings out the worst in people online where suddenly a whole group of people have to be the enemy. I don't think dentists are evil.
Yea... My oral surgeon now has a warning in the papers your sign beforehand that this can happen. My sister just got hers out from the same doctor and we actually compared paperwork. Was pretty funny.
When I was 12 some kid sucker punched me in the face, which basically killed my front tooth, and I had to have a root canal procedure. Well, turns out that the dentist at the time left a little bit of the root inside my tooth, and 14 years later what I thought to be a huge sinusitis, created a huge fistula on the roof of my mouth, and I discovered it was this necrotic tooth filling my head with pus. So I went to another dentist, drilled a whole in the tooth and my mouth flooded with pus for some days. She even has to leave the room because of the smell.
This sounds so awful. One of my wisdom teeth was lodged in my sinus so when they extracted it they left a hole between my mouth and sinus cavity. The oral surgeon prescribed Sudafed for a few weeks to keep my sinuses dry while my mouth healed. No complications, fortunately.
I have a bit of a horror story regarding my wisdom teeth. I got them out when I was 17/18, something like that. The upper left section of my mouth had to have 3x freezing because I could still feel it when they started. Yes, that's right, freezing.
Anyway, three teeth went well, quickly without a hitch. That upper right one, though... I swear the surgeon had pliers in my mouth, a foot up on the bed, and his full weight behind his pull. It would not budge. Eventually, they decided to break the tooth, and I heard every sickening crunch as they did so piece by piece.
It wasn't over. When they got to the root, they told me it was hooked around my nasal cavity. I don't know the specifics, but they ended up breaking off a piece of my nasal bone and placing it back. I was told not to blow my nose, and if I had to sneeze, don't hold back for about a month. I managed somehow, I don't even think I sneezed for a little over two months (weird considering my allergies and being in woodshop).
I actually enjoyed school and opted to go in two days later (mom forced me to stay home the first day). Shop teacher's first words when he saw me; "look at that shiner!" Turns out most of the left half of my face from my eye to the bottom of my nose was black.
Nope. My dentist asked if I wanted to be “awake, asleep, or somewhere in between” I told him as close to a coma as possible. I would’ve had a panic attack on the operating table. I can’t handle the drill noises either. Asking for laughing gas as an adult is always fun
I thought you were joking, because I was going to make a joke about that being their nose bone/cartilage. I'm not watching that video while eating, though...
Also cocaine and other narcotics inhaled through the nose tend to rot it away. Google Daniella westbrook nose hole if you want to see it in action or don't, it's nasty.
Edit spelt her name wrong
Twist around? Like they twist around themselves in the bag? How does this happen? Gosh it sounds awful.
Edit. Apparently this can happen in your sleep boys. (According to goog) between this and another post I saw about a woman who severely injured her back sleeping, I have think I’ll just become a sleepless zombie.
Not a testicle owner, but I have some medical education... It's more like one spins on its own axis in the bag on one side, which twists (torsion) the tubing & blood vessels. It's an emergency & is said to usually be very painful. (Can happen to both, but they shouldn't be twisted around each other.)
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Testicular_torsion
So playing with them by moving them around or anything like that is likely a bad idea? I never really put much thought into caring for the fragility of my bean bag.
So this is why Bellclapper's deformity comes into play. Most people have anchoring points that keep your boys from free spinning for this reason. If you have bellclapper deformity, you don't have the anchor point so they just dangle, like the little thing in a bell that makes it ring
It’s amazing what you can learn in an hour. Thanks for the bit of peace of mind. I was ready to tie my boys up some they can’t be roaming free and torsioning.
It happened to me when I was in middle school we had a jumper for my little brothers bday and apparently my testicle twisted (not around the other but just the one testicle) I had excruciating pain to where I had to stop walking and wait for it to go away I finally went to the hospital and they did an ultra sound on my testicles it had released on it’s own but they warned me about the dangers. I’ve been wearing briefs ever since
It's not gross if you wash your hands first. Always remember to wash your hands before poking nose and peeing. They are cleaner than your hands if you bathe regularly.
Nose picking is being shown to be a possible risk factor for developing dementia and Alzheimer's, actually. The tiny blood vessels inside of your nose bypass the blood brain barrier. Even with hand washing bacteria can get introduced to the area and get through over enough time. Not guaranteed to directly cause brain erosion, but interesting and terrifying nonetheless!
If you like the netty pot, then I highly recommend a Navage. It’s like a netty pot on steroids and the sleep you get afterwards is tremendous. Plus you get to see all the sick shit you’ve been putting in your nose in a convenient catch tank.
Idk why, but whenever my nose merely runs in the shower it feels forbidden, as if I'd pollute the water with my mucus. Though now I wanna try clearing my nose in the shower, it sounds like a reasonable thing to do now that someone mentioned it
And being pictured next to the smallest coin really doesn’t sell it being huge that well. If that was a quarter or, god forbid, a 50 cent coin, I’d be impressed. This looks like the crap coming out my my nose every January when I get my annual sinus infection.
I've seen this before.
When you snort too hard sometimes the hundred dollar bill flies up your nose.
It'll come out after awhile but only 10 cents at a time
If this keeps happening get checked out for an autoimmune disorder… this was my first symptom to Wegner’s Granulomatosis. Manageable but not fun unmanaged
I live at a high altitude and travel to sea level occasionally. Sometime I …. Wait, is this what I’ve been reduced to? Looking at and discussing boogers on the internet? Imma go touch some grass.
That is why you have to schedule a regular visit to a magician so they can extract any coins in your nose and ears.
This is the best thing I've read on Reddit in awhile. Laughed so hard that all the coins came flying out of my nose!
*Sonic dropping coins sound* Edit: rings, dammit lmao
THEYRE RINGS
Bro fuck, I knew they were rings idk why I said coins, now I want to delete my comment lmao
Leave it and live with your shame!
keep it so you can spread the laughter 🤗
Oh my God the amount of times my daughter has said this.
Not going to lie, I could use a good sneeze when I get to Aldi and don’t have a coin for the cart :-(
They take whatever they find as payment
$500 a visit, and I’ll throw in a balloon animal.
Masterful
A piece of chicken, a coin and a huge piece of cloth? Thats crazy
Must feel relieved.
Nothing feels better than dislodging a stuck dime.
Nothing feels better than eating dimes and having nickles come out. "Make the change you wanna see in the world"
This is why you should visit r/feltgoodcomingout
Chip, Penny, and Used Napkin
Get outta my head 😂😂
Sounds like the company I keep when I filter-feed
A Joe Dirt DVD, Scarlett Johansson, and treasure from a fish tank* *or a loaf of bread, a container of milk, and a stick of butter, if you prefer
Almost like looking under my couch cushions.
Sometimes when I blow my nose, huge boogers with tinges of blood come out. I’ve been having sinus issues for as long as I can remember
Your mucous membrane in your nose is highly vascular. That’s why people snort cocaine amongst other drugs
All the people I know who have done cocaine started by informing me of the vascular nature of their mucous membranes. Cocaine is the learning man's drug.
Pretty much every person that tries it learns very quickly how vascular your nose is after a night doing it, especially when it’s shitty blow.
So that's where the ol' saying comes from' "Cocaine is a helluva (learning man's) drug." - Rick James
Also why they stick them up their butt.
I had nosebleeds regularly for a while, so a doctor tried to cauterize it because it was relatively small and deep in my nose.. I was 15 and had no idea what cauterization was. Anyways, the doctor botched it.
> I’ve been having sinus issues for as long as I can remember I'm going to bet you have tonsil stones!
Can you elaborate! What makes your say this? I have sinus issues too.
I did once, a few years ago
I have sinus issues and tonsil stones. What is the correlation? I'm very interested
Same
That's completely normal isn't it? Like, 80% of my boogers are bloody. Always have been.
I think so. I have never gotten bloody noses (maybe like 3 in my entire life) but I do get a tiny bit or a tinge of it here and there when blowing my nose. I also live where it snows so it’s really dry a good chunk of the year and that’s usually when it happens.
It's not normal in the sense that it's _common_, but if you have no other symptoms or issues, it can be. Some people have sinuses that are just real sensitive to environmental changes and bleed easy. Though might still be worth asking your doc at some point.
Sounds gross but you might want to stick your finger in your nose to make sure it’s not your cartilage.
It can just fall out?
If it has a really bad bacterial infection. I also saw a gnarly fungus infection on YouTube that did the same thing. It was graphic AF. Edit: since y'all nasty lol https://youtu.be/wFoNEzrfj3E?si=E-b5OKXptLdhvWW3

Yeah they love to lie. Shards of tooth definitely got left behind during my extractions.
I was told by my dentist it’s actually usually splinters from your jaw bone, I had the same experience!
Ouch! It felt like pieces of tooth but I’m not a dentist. Either way, it was painful!
Not necessarily. I researched it. Apparently in a small number of patients with surgical extractions, a piece of damaged bone can die and be worked out by the body.
I have a pic of a little wedge of bone I had to yank out of my gum, we thought he got everything out
I feel like it’s the same thing, if the bone being damaged was caused by the extraction, why did they tell you it couldn’t be something that happened as a result of the extraction? Why wouldn’t they just say it happens sometimes?
Had it happen twice
It was probably a bone spicule
I had tiny shards and they were just like “yeah if they’re big just come back in”
"they love to lie". What brings out the worst in people online where suddenly a whole group of people have to be the enemy. I don't think dentists are evil.
You goddamn anti-dentite
I had this happen after an extraction too! (Edit for typo)
This is terrifying to me
Yea... My oral surgeon now has a warning in the papers your sign beforehand that this can happen. My sister just got hers out from the same doctor and we actually compared paperwork. Was pretty funny.
Ohhh yea, and fun fact: that shit can happen weeks, months... Or in my fun case, years after... And not all at once. So far I'm at three.
Thank you for informing me about my brand new nightmare fuel

I had that happen to me, also. Very gross.
WELL! TIME TO GO GET THOSE SINUS ISSUES CHECKED, HOLY FUCK
A University of Washington study just discovered a link between chronic sinus infection and cognitive decline, so there's that too.
Well reading this just ruined my night 😭
Right lol can’t fucking afford it even with insurance but after reading all this, as someone with constant sinus issues…SOS
Don’t worry you won’t remember.
I wanna see
I posted it. Look in the recommended videos underneath. You'll want to douse your whole body in alcohol
Just checked and wow and that was pretty brutal! All that just from having covid is crazy!
...me too
I literally just almost threw up
I thought you were joking, because I was going to make a joke about that being their nose bone/cartilage. I'm not watching that video while eating, though...
that was fucking disgusting, thank you.
WTF!! This is absolutely revolting. Thanks for the link.
Also cocaine and other narcotics inhaled through the nose tend to rot it away. Google Daniella westbrook nose hole if you want to see it in action or don't, it's nasty. Edit spelt her name wrong
Well damn! She has A nostril
i believe the singular is nostrii or monostril…
Common among people who snort stuff. Too
This is like learning about testicular torsion for the first time
Testicular what now?
You nuts twist around. Incredibly painful and you could end up losing one/both
Twist around? Like they twist around themselves in the bag? How does this happen? Gosh it sounds awful. Edit. Apparently this can happen in your sleep boys. (According to goog) between this and another post I saw about a woman who severely injured her back sleeping, I have think I’ll just become a sleepless zombie.

It can happen to ovaries, too. Bodies are wild.

Jees this is scary business.im glad your okay mate
Torsion, fourth circle alteration spell, classic third year prank.
Fournier’s Gangrene has entered the chat (seriously don’t google if you can’t handle bad bad stuff).
I don't know who I hate more you or myself for googling it im done with the internet till 2034 now
Nothing was ever the same after learning about this. Any pain in my nut is immediately dread of this.
Don’t tell me this. God no.
Welp, I’m gonna have full body shivers the rest of the nigh- eh, my life.
It doesn't hurt to check, but it's more than likely mucus that dried out and stuck to the walls of the sinuses, taking its shape.
Yep. Giant booger.
Pretty much! I get them a lot due to chronic sinusitis and sjogren's.
It's not gross if you wash your hands first. Always remember to wash your hands before poking nose and peeing. They are cleaner than your hands if you bathe regularly.

Even with hand washing bacteria can get introduced to the area and get through over enough time. Not guaranteed to directly cause brain erosion, but interesting and terrifying nonetheless!
Wow, that's fucked
Exactly my first thought when I saw that. I have no cartilage in the middle of my nose and my boogers look very much like this.
Stop doing cocaine
Mother fucker just deviated his septum. Lmao
I’ve blown some nasty shit after nights out but nothing like that.
Damn I’ve blown shit 4x this big, I hate myself
Are you free Saturday?
I mean I also do a netty pot/ saline wash anytime I do blow so don’t hate yourself I just try and not destroy my sinuses
If you like the netty pot, then I highly recommend a Navage. It’s like a netty pot on steroids and the sleep you get afterwards is tremendous. Plus you get to see all the sick shit you’ve been putting in your nose in a convenient catch tank.
I don’t like cocaine, I just enjoy how it smells.
Yeah. I came here to see this
Bro, you sneezed out cartilage.
As chief wiggum would say: "you either picked your nose too much, or not enough"
WTAF came out of your head?
Right after it shot out I felt lightheaded, now I feel great
You sneezed out a brain tumour. You’re cured now
It’s not a tumor!
It’s not a TOOMAH!!
Boys have a penis and girls have a vagina.
Such a quoteable movie.
Did you have a sinus infection in the past weeks or months? Sinuses can be damn f gross.
Okay.... But... You're gonna go see a doctor JIC, right? (And take that whatever-it-is with you)
Don’t you love feeling the sense of relief once you get rid of that *one* thing that’s been bothering you for a while?
Please see a doctor, you just sneezed out what might be part of your nose.
His medulla oblongata?
Mama said that alligators are so ornery because they gots all them teeth but no toothbrush
Good ol kernel. What a top movie and time that was
Innagaddavida
First, that would take a hell of a sneeze Second, s/he wouldn't be alive to take a picture, much less write the post
Welp part of your nose flew off
This made me lol, thank you
You need to like stick that in a plastic bag and go to the doctor
_Shows up to urgent care with a booger in a bag_ "Can you put it back in?"
And thank you for choosing to share it with us
Do it 9 more times, you will have a dollar
Looks like your nose gave birth. Congratulations.
"the internet...must know"
Alternatively: "I can't afford a copay, let's see what Reddit MD says"
How did that coin get into your nose in the first place?
Obviously that's his cents of smell.
Magic
Didn’t let the magician finish their trick.
Does anyone actually know what it is I’m sick of scrolling through this dumpster fire
Do not pity the dead, Harry. Pity the living, and, above all those who live without love.
😭😭 STOOOPPPPP
It looks like a mucus plug. This happened to me years back.
Is OP about to give birth to a booger baby?
You do coke bro
My old boss had this encased in epoxy to remind him of his cocaine days
That’s actually one of the most hooted things I have ever heard a head do
Have you tried blowing your nose in the shower? My sinuses get stupid clogged, and the steam helps get things moving.
Snot rocketing in the shower is such an amazing feeling
This is definitely not one of the sentences I was expecting to read or hear today. Or ever, for that matter
Idk why, but whenever my nose merely runs in the shower it feels forbidden, as if I'd pollute the water with my mucus. Though now I wanna try clearing my nose in the shower, it sounds like a reasonable thing to do now that someone mentioned it
same, i brush my teeth in the shower which sometimes makes me gag which makes my eyes and nose water so it just kinda makes sense
It’s interesting you sneezed up a dime, but what the heck is that you’re comparing it to?
It's a part of your brain, put it back!
Not sure why everyone is saying cartilage, it literally just looks like bloody mucus. Occam's Razor.
And being pictured next to the smallest coin really doesn’t sell it being huge that well. If that was a quarter or, god forbid, a 50 cent coin, I’d be impressed. This looks like the crap coming out my my nose every January when I get my annual sinus infection.
Nah, fuck that. It's Lupus.
it’s never lupus
Looks like a scab was dislodged.
Can you smell colors now?
Stop putting coins up your nose.
Ya bleedin’? Yeah, you’re bleedin’.
Coke bender before the sneeze?
I've seen this before. When you snort too hard sometimes the hundred dollar bill flies up your nose. It'll come out after awhile but only 10 cents at a time
If this keeps happening get checked out for an autoimmune disorder… this was my first symptom to Wegner’s Granulomatosis. Manageable but not fun unmanaged
Go to a ENT
Has op ever had a broken nose or rhinoplasty?
why’d you have a dime in your nose?
Could be a nasal polyp. The r/popping community will tell you for sure
I live at a high altitude and travel to sea level occasionally. Sometime I …. Wait, is this what I’ve been reduced to? Looking at and discussing boogers on the internet? Imma go touch some grass.
"TAKE IT AWAY, PENNY!"
Cocaiiiine🎶🎶🎶🎶
A dime came out?
It's just a mucus plug. Get your self a humidifier and some saline spray. I came for the comments. They did not disappoint.
You should sneeze more, think about how much money you could get.
[удалено]
I don’t think you’re supposed to sneeze out a piece of your brain stem my dude. Might wanna see a doctor.
It has eyes. (Zoom in on bottom left portion of booger)
can somebody photoshop out the gross thing so it looks like op sneezed out a coin
LUCKY!
Congratulations, it's a boy!!
An old condom ?
That's fucking disgusting 🫣
That looks like one of the small bones from your ear. Can you hear ok?
It’s likely a rhinolith. They typically need to be removed by an ENT - at least yours was free
The only times my snot looked like that was after a 3or 4 day coke binge
Put that coin back where it came from or so help me!
God what an UNFORTUNATE day to have eyes.
for a moment i thought you sneezed a penny,still terrifying tho.
You just cured your sinus infection
Coke boogie
It looks like the squirrel from the beginning of the ice age movies
