Guest guest Posted June 14, 2004 Report Share Posted June 14, 2004 I just blew my nose and a couple tears came streaming out of one of my eyes! I didnt blow hard either and squirt. This is the same eye that started leaking a tear now and then a couple days after the swelling in my face reached its peak. Its weird because most of that swelling is gone by now.

Guest guest Posted June 14, 2004 Report Share Posted June 14, 2004 We have drains for our tear ducts that run from the lower eyelids to the nasal cavity and out the nose and back of throat. That is how we can taste our salty tears when we cry. Probably you have some swelling and blockage of the ducts within the nose itself. As it subsides, the ducts should open back up. In worst case, the ducts can be flushed by your general practicioner or sometimes an optometrist. I don't think it hurts, looks really cool (at least in horses and cats).

As soon as the nose gets to breath freely, you'll notice the tears will disappear. Ray Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
