In the process of swimming, it is inevitable that the nose will choke on water. Is there any good solution to this?

What should I do if my nose gets choked by water while swimming?

The pressure of water is much greater than that of air. Holding your breath and exhaling in water are not as easy or natural as on land. Students will adapt better if they practice on land first. The longer you hold your breath and exhale, the more helpful it will be for learning other movements later, but you have to practice slowly, and don't exhale immediately after inhaling. How to rescue someone who is drowning while swimming? When you come to the drowning person, first observe whether he is conscious and able to move. It is best to give him the buoyancy tool and let him hold it by himself, keep his head above water and able to breathe, then tow him back to the shore, or let him grab a bamboo pole or wooden stick and pull him back to the shore. If the person is unconscious or there are no tools, you should go around behind him, make sure he cannot grab your hands, grab his hair, let his mouth and nose emerge from the water, and then pull him back to the shore. Also, if the drowning person is flailing his hands and feet and cannot follow your commands, you might as well wait for him to drink more water and then take action when he is exhausted, drag him back to the shore, and control the water to rescue him. After all, the life safety of the rescuer is more important. So what should you do if you choke on water and have difficulty breathing while swimming?

It is normal to get water in your nose when swimming, but don't go too deep and choke, which is dangerous to your health. When you start learning to swim, water enters the front part of the nose and irritates the inner wall of this part of the nose, making you feel uncomfortable. This is natural, and you will get used to it slowly.

If you want to keep water out of your nose when swimming, you should first learn the basics of swimming, such as breathing. Before you formally start learning to swim, you can do immersion exercises. In shallow water, bend over and immerse your head in the water, counting silently to see how long you can hold on. After practicing this repeatedly for a period of time, you will no longer be afraid of your head being immersed in water, and the time you can hold your breath will gradually increase.

After becoming proficient in diving, you will start the most critical training - breathing. The breathing in breaststroke has a very clear rhythm, and it is not difficult to master. As your arms row backward with force, your upper body will be lifted upward - this is the time to raise your head and breathe, and it should happen completely naturally. A good swimmer’s head stays out of the water for a shorter time and glides for a longer time. Especially those who are good at free swimming, you can hardly see them breathing, it seems that their heads are always buried in the water, it is very exciting. Beginners can keep their head out of water for a longer time. Due to psychological tension, beginners often open their mouths wide and inhale wildly when breathing.
