Exercise induced gustatory rhinorrhea?

jal129

Hey everyone,

Kind of a weird question here. Ever since I started dieting/exercising and losing weight, my nose runs constantly when I'm eating. It's super annoying and semi-embarrassing if I'm eating with others. Has anyone else experienced this phenomenon? I never had this problem before and it's definitely frustrating. Thanks for your help!

are you eating spicy foods? do you have allergies? have you got a cold?

if no to all of those ...try a nasal spray like otrivin half an hour before you eat.

No constantly, but it does happen most days......but only if it's hot food. Strange....

No to all of the above...happens with everything.

I would be careful with the medicated nasal spray. You don't want to use it for more than three days in a row as it can cause rebound congestion.
