Today, I have a cold. Trying to clear out my stuffy nose, I tried putting mouthwash in my nose. Thinking it was an awesome idea, I put some more in. I then starting screaming in pain due to the extreme burning in my nostrils. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I had a cold and was vomiting. I sneezed really hard, smacking my nose onto the toilet seat. I woke up a few minutes later with my nose bleeding, painful, and still stuffy. FML
Today, I noticed a strange mark on the inside of my mouthwash bottle. As I was bending down to investigate, my hands tightened around the bottle and mouthwash squirted in my eye. It still burns. FML
Today, I accidentally took my mouthwash like a shot. I don't know what burned more, when it went down or when it came back up. FML
Today, I made a cup of tea at work. Whilst talking to a workmate, I took a sip of the tea, which I had forgotten was boiling hot, and laughed at the same time, causing it to come out of my nose. I have blistered my whole mouth and even burnt my nostrils. FML
Today, my nose was really stuffed up and I was out of cold medicine. I heard spices may help with this kind of problem. Unfortunately I thought red pepper would be a great thing to snort at the time. Not only is my nose still stuffed up but I also have immense nasal pain. FML
Today, I learned how much it hurts to put a mint up your nose. FML
Today, my nose was really stuffy. I heard somewhere that inhaling tea steam clears up the nose. While reading a magazine I inhaled my cup of green tea steam, without knowing that slowly I was moving my cup closer to my nose. Hot tea was sucked into my left nostril and burned the inside badly. FML
Today, I burned my nose. How? I tried sniffing a lit candle. FML
Today, after a very painful mouth surgery, I went home to take a nap. Then my nose started bleeding, so I stuck a tissue in it and fell asleep. When I woke up, I was so high from painkillers that when I saw the tissue, I thought it was a ghost. I screamed so loud I burst a stitch. FML
Today, I took cough syrup for a miserable COVID sore throat and harsh cough. It went down the wrong tube, and now I'm coughing worse, trying to get it out of my lungs. It hurts. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

how would putting mouthwash in your nose clear mucus? I've never heard of that before.

That's ridiculous. It didn't occur to you that putting any kind of alcoholic solution on an area of sensitive membrane might be damaging? Pick up a saline nasal spray from the pharmacy (or 'drug store', as you Americans like to put it).

uhm. why are you steriotyping? i call it a pharnacy. im from america. and there is a difference between a drug store and a pharmacy.

I've never heard anyone refer to a pharmacy as a "drug store." Convenience stores are sometimes called liquor stores or drug stores. A pharmacy is a pharmacy. The whole point of a convenience store is to sell a variety of items, closer to homes located further away from major stores.

I don't know anyone who calls a Pharmacy a drugstore. What are talking about?

Who ******* cares.

Obviously I've seen too many crappy movies. Pharmacy it is.

Oh, and 114, while we're not actually talking about convenience stores, the point of them is pretty obvious...

Try putting lemon juice in your eye to distract from the pain in your nose. That is another awesome idea.
