Random question about ears


Anyone else have the sensation of menthol in your ears after brushing your teeth? πŸ€”

The first 2 or 3 breaths in after finishing, then it goes away.

Can't find a thing about it on Google so I'm guessing this is not common ...

I AM TRYING TO WRAP MY HEAD AROUND "the sensation of menthol in your ears"....I AM ASSUMING I HAVE NOT EXPERIENCED IT AS I CANNOT FATHOM HOW THAT WOULD FEEL.

reply

I've always experienced it lol, same with strong chewing gum. I didn't realise this wasn't a thing until it came up at work, then Google didn't have any answers so I thought I'd ask here πŸ˜… ....

reply

I have not, but since all the sinus passageways are connected in there it makes sense that if you have a strong minty smell in one part of your head you might experience the sensation also in another. Kind of how mentholatum rub can open up your whole head.

No. And I've used menthol in a number of medicines. In fact, I've never heard of such a sensation happening as a result of brushed teeth.

Your wires are crossing.

Run a magnet over yourself for a few hours and you'll be okay.
