Recently, I have grown so much nasal hair that when I blow my nose I usually see at least one hair on the tissue. At first I thought 'good, that's one less nasal hair', because these elementary students of my friend commented on my nasal hair once. Then I came upon an article in wikipedia:
...However, given the function of nasal cilia, many physicians recommend trimming them lightly, if at all. There is evidence that ciliar motility regularly declines with advancing age, a fact which may be implicated in the higher incidence of respiratory infections in this group.![]()
