Not able to sneeze.
Hello doctor, For the past 2 days, I am not able to sneeze but having a sensation of a sneeze. Whenever I try to sneeze but I fail. I tried many things like sniffing spices, insert tissue paper in my nostril, try to watch bright light ( looking at the bright sky ), I get sensations but no sneeze due to which I got a headache. So just need to know what to do. Is it problematic for me or me no need to worry? Please help me with this issue. Regards, Avinav Kant Kapoor
