TikTokers are discovering the power of shoving a clove of garlic up your nose.
If your sinuses are all blocked up, forget anything you know about using a tissue to blow your snout, because sticking garlic up there is clearly the way forward.
The trend has emerged as a way to cause an absolute tsunami of snotters from your nostrils and is supposed to work at treat if you're feeling all blocked up.
Of course, as is the case with sticking any foreign object into your body, doctors are urging people to be very careful when trying this trend.
Shape have advised against it altogether.
Neil Bhattacharyya, MD - an ear, nose, and throat doctor and surgeon at Mass Eye and Ear - said one of the potential dangers is irritation.
"If you do this enough, the body will start to react to the oils and chemicals in the garlic and cause contact dermatitis in the nose."
