Most likely it is a sinus infection. You will need to call your doctor and possibly get some anti-biotic. Also while your there they can probably run some tests to ensure that it is in fact a sinus infection and nothing more serious. Your body could probably fight it off on its own but the doctor is the best route to take.

Why do you have boogers?

Special glands in the nose produce "boogers" to keep bacteria from entering our bodies. (You know your snot is doing its job when your boogers are green from the build-up of bacteria)


Why when you blow your nose does part of the snot get stuck somewhere around the bone in your upper nose?

yes that is why your get boogers stuck in your nose those borgers are sometimes dried snot from when you blow your nose if you do not blow your nose all the way.


Are boogers living or non living?

I hope that means snot. There is bacteria in your snot (or boogers) which are simple LIVING organisms


Does your snot have any nutritional value?

No, snot is a build up inside the nose that is indigestible, so it is actually bad for you. So for those who eat their boogers, you are ruining your digestive system.


Can you smell your own nose?

Yes. If you turn your nostrils inside-out and breathe through your mouth, I can always detect a little hint of nose hair and snot/boogers.


Will the stomach eat itself without the help of the snot of the nose?

No, you are not supposed to swallow your snot or eat your boogers but it doesn't harm you, the stomach has its own mucus to keep the acid from eating the stomach


What is lining of the nose?

YES, mukis,boogers....


What are the particles in your nose called?

Boogers are mucus (myoo-kuss).Mucus is the thin, slippery material that is found inside your nose. Many people call mucus snot. Your nose makes nearly a cupful of snot every day. Snot is produced by the mucous membranes in the nose, which it moistens and protects.When you inhale air through your nose, it contains lots of tiny particles, like dust, dirt, germs, and pollen. If these particles made it all the way to the lungs, the lungs could get damaged and it would be difficult to breathe. Snot works by trapping the particles and keeping them in the nose.After these particles get stuck inside the nose, the mucus surrounds them along with some of the tiny hairs inside the nose called cilia. The mucus dries around the particles. When the particles and dried-out mucus clump together, you're left with a booger!Boogers can be squishy and slimy or tough and crumbly. In fact, boogers are a sign that your nose is working properly.


Where does the mucus in your nose come from?

Boogers or mostly known as mucus is made by the same secretions as your eyes. Ever notice that when you cry or have tears that a runny nose follows? This is because your eyes, ears and nose are all conected. The tears can drain into your nose and throat. Your Sinus cavity can also make this mucus which is why when you have a sinus infection, your nose gets all congested.


What are the benefits of booger?

Boogers don't really have any benefits. Boogers are the results of the benefits of snot (mucus) in your nose. Dust particles get trapped in the moist mucus, dry and become boogers. Boogers are then expelled via 'blowing your nose' and the dirt particles are removed, never reaching your lower respiratory system (lungs). Without mucus (and boogers) you would have more dirt (and other particulates) in your lungs and be at higher risk of infection and other diseases.
