Reflex
Nervus trigeminus (V)
Sneezing is a reflex action caused by irritation in the nasal cavity. By sneezing you reduce the chance of ingesting dust particles and potentially dangerous microorganisms that have been breathed in. Because of this sneezing could be classed in the respiratory category.
Reflex actions are sudden responses, which do not involve any thinking.

Sneezing is a reflex. A reflex is where your body does something automatically and is something that you have no control over. Some people can sneeze with their eyes open, and some people can not.
Sneezing after bumping your nose can occur due to irritation of the nasal passages. The impact may trigger the trigeminal nerve, which is responsible for facial sensations and reflex actions like sneezing. Additionally, the bump can cause a release of histamines, leading to inflammation and further irritation in the nasal area, prompting sneezing as a protective reflex to clear the airways.
Yes. It is a human reflex you are born with to get things out of your nose. However, sneezing too much (as shown by constant irritation and redness) could mean you are either sick or have something you need to talk to your doctor about.
It is extremely rare for someone to die as a direct result of sneezing. Sneezing is a natural reflex that helps clear the airways of irritants, and the force of a sneeze is usually not strong enough to cause serious injury or death.
