Does sneezing really stop the heart beating? Know the facts


Ahmedabad. 16 April 2023 Sunday

Sneezing is very normal. However, there is an assumption in the minds of some people that whenever there is a sneeze, the heartbeat stops for some time. But is this really a fact or just a myth. Sneezing usually starts with a strange feeling in the nose first. Which is followed by a sudden sneeze that shakes the whole body. During a sneeze, it feels as if the heart has taken a short break from its work.

Many people feel that their heart stops beating when they sneeze. However, that is not the case at all. When you inhale before sneezing, the pressure in your chest increases. After which the pressure in the chest decreases when you forcefully exhale during a sneeze. These same pressures cause changes in blood flow. which can affect heart rate. However, it does not mean that your heart stops beating when you sneeze. Electrical activity in the heart continues uninterrupted during sneezing.

Spilling inside the nose while cooking also causes sneezing. Apart from this, the inhalation of dust particles during waste disposal leads to sneezing. Whenever there is discomfort due to a particle inside the nose, it is immediately expelled by sneezing.
