ELI5 - How am I able to drain my nose through my mouth?
One of my friends can also do this, but most other people I know cannot. It sounds gross, but I?m able to drain the mucus in my nose and throat through the top of my mouth. It?s near the back of my mouth, in front of my uvula, and when I contract some muscle I can clear my sinuses without making the obnoxious hacking sound. Can anyone else do this, and if so, what is it?
