OD asked:
I have problems working with some people because of their breath, I sneeze and get sick. Am I alone in this or do other people suffer like me with the same problem. During meetings I always have a hankerchief pretending to blow my nose because of I have a cold. It is serious and I need help!
Offer people mints, or gum. Maybe after a while they’ll get the hint.
“….like doctors during autopsy….”……..???!!!
Do you think the corpse cares whether the doctor has a bad breath?
The dead body had a bad day. Never mind bad breath. It is least of its problems……….. LoL.
Yes, me too. And I hate people coughing or even breathing in my space! Get some nice linen handkerchiefs (not tissues – real ones are much nicer) and spinkle some lavender water or something on it. Then you can take your hanky out whenever you need, and sniff it to clear your head and your air. You might also want to try some antihistamine tablets if your nasal hair follicles are so sensitive to others that you sneeze.
For immediate relief try a sinus med containing pseudoephedrine or something like claritan, both which are over the counter meds.
You might also try a neti pot, which seems to be an effective method of rinsing the sinuses and reducing allergies and sinus discomfort:
Doctors routinely put Vick’s vabor rub under there nose to disguise the smells during surgery or when conducting an autopsy etc…
