Why do I feel nauseous and retching when brushing my teeth in the morning? The reason is actually like this

Brushing teeth is something people must do after getting up every morning, because if you eat breakfast without brushing your teeth after getting up, oral bacteria will be brought into the human body, thus affecting your health. Recently, many people experience nausea and retching when brushing their teeth in the morning, which makes people very panic, fearing that they have contracted some disease. In fact, nausea and retching when brushing teeth in the morning are caused by the following three reasons.

1. You squeeze too much toothpaste when brushing your teeth . Too much toothpaste will produce a lot of foam after friction in the mouth, which will irritate the throat and cause nausea.

2. Brush your teeth with cold water . Many people use cold water regardless of spring, summer, autumn or winter, but they don’t know that brushing your teeth with cold water is bad for your teeth. On the one hand, brushing your teeth with cold water in cold weather will not soften the bristles of the toothbrush, and if you are not careful when brushing your teeth, it will cause bleeding gums and cause nausea. On the other hand, brushing your teeth with cold water (especially in winter) can stimulate the oral nerves and cause nausea due to the temperature difference between the water and the mouth.

3. Some people may suffer from chronic pharyngitis.

What to do if you feel nauseous and retching when brushing your teeth in the morning:

1. When brushing your teeth, do not squeeze too much toothpaste. Generally, it can be determined according to the toothbrush you use. If the toothbrush has more bristles, toothpaste can occupy 1/3; if the toothbrush has fewer bristles, toothpaste can occupy 1/2. This will not only avoid waste, but also avoid discomfort during brushing. Consider using a children's toothbrush.

2. When brushing your teeth in spring, autumn and winter (especially winter), you can use warm water at 30 to 40 degrees Celsius (depending on your own comfort level), put the toothbrush in it first, wait until the bristles become soft, then squeeze an appropriate amount of toothpaste and start brushing your teeth. This will not cause bleeding gums, and you won't feel nauseous when rinsing your mouth with warm water.

3. When brushing your teeth, try to breathe out through your nostrils instead of your mouth.

4. For those suffering from chronic pharyngitis, in addition to brushing your teeth according to the above method, you should also take medication in time and try to smoke less or not smoke at all. Blood in the throat when waking up in the morning and nausea when brushing teeth are typical symptoms of chronic pharyngitis. The amount of blood is related to the severity of the disease. Don't worry, chronic pharyngitis can be treated. It is recommended to go to the hospital for examination and treatment as soon as possible to avoid delaying the disease.
