Well, when you feel self-conscious, your body releases adrenalin, which increases the blood flow to your face. Babies don’t blush. You only blush when you become aware of other people’s thoughts and feelings. Sneeze When something such as dust, pollen or a virus irritates the inside of our nose, a message goes to the brain. The brain then tells six different muscles including your eyelids to push air out through your nose at up to 160 kmph. Hiccup We get hiccups when something irritates the diaphragm muscle below the lungs that helps pull air into them. When we eat or drink too much or when we feel nervous or excited, the diaphragm pulls down air in a jerky way. When this air meets your voice box, you make a hiccup sound. Cough A cough is an important way of clearing your airways, throat and lungs of irritation. When you cough, you breathe in and close your vocal cords. As you release the air, you make a barking noise — a cough. Snore When you are asleep and air can’t move freely-through your mouth or nose, parts of your mouth and throat vibrate and cause snoring. Reasons why the air can’t get through might include an allergy, a cold or being overweight. Studies say that about 45% of men and 30% of women snore regularly.
