What causes you to breath through only one hole from your nose is the fact that the other hole is blocked by mucus, or "boogers" if the mucus has dried up. If this not the case then you should ask your doctor.

Sometimes this is normal. It may be the body's way to get you to turn over in your sleep and prevent bed sores. What happens is that the turbinates in your sinuses swell.

Why can you still breathe if your nose is blocked?

If you can breathe through a nose that is entirely blocked, that's amazing. Considering the fact that only one side is stopped up, and the other side is stuffy, runny ect, then yes you can still breathe. Its just inflamed blood vessels in the nose that results in congesting. Sometimes all blood vessels aren't affected, therefore making the nose partially blocked, resulting in the ability to breathe.

The nasal cycle is a natural process where one nostril is more dominant in breathing while the other is less active. This helps regulate airflow and optimize the functions of the nose, such as filtering and humidifying the air we breathe.


Your right nostril is blocked and you can't breathe out of it what can you do?

YOU ACTUALLY ONLY BREATHE OUT OF ONE NOSTRIL AT A TIME! TRY THIS OUT - PLACE THE BACK OF YOUR HAND UNDER BOTH NOSTRILS AND BLOW GENTLY THOUGH YOUR NOSE - YOU WILL ONLY FEEL THE BREATH FROM ONE NOSTRIL - TRY IT AGAIN ABOUT 30 MINUTES LATER AND IT WILL HAVE CHANGED TO THE OTHER NOSTRIL!
