Is it necessary for you to wash your hands after blowing your nose?

If you%26#039;re sick, otherwise the tissue protects you. Unless it gets too wet|||It is recommended. When you blow your nose, mucous, along with mucosal cells are blown and transmitted onto the tissue, your hands, and the surrounding air (despite how well you think you blow your nose, fluid is very easily aerosolized). It is this fluid/cells that transmit disease when other people around you come in contact with it.|||oh god yes. i%26#039;m a microbiologist - you wouldn%26#039;t believe the germs you can spread by something as simple as blowing your nose, even with layers of tissues. scrub with warm soap and water (soap DOES NOT have to be antibacterial, just the motion of rubbing and rinsing will get rid of lots of germs!)|||Pretty gross if you don%26#039;t clean up somehow. I keep that antibacterial gel at my desk and use that afterward if I must blow my nose. I%26#039;m sure microscopic stuff you can%26#039;t see flies out and gets on your hands and the part of the tissue you don%26#039;t have your nose on.|||i usually dont, unless you get some on your hands.


then i deffinatly would, and not just wipe it on your pants.


like, what if the last person you shake hands with get their


boogies on there hands and didnt wash them?


now you have their germs all over your hands.


hahhhah, ewwwwwwww.|||not unless you are sick. obviously if you have something like swine flu you would want to prevent spreading the germs to others. lol im reading the other responces its almost like they thing you blowing your nose onto you hand and nothing else|||Yes, but hand sanitizer is quicker and easier to use. I keep a little bottle of it just in case.





But if you have a blow out, better use soap and water!|||it depends. if its on ur hands then definitely. if ur hands are wet after you blow into a tissue than definitely. but if its into your sleeve than no just change your shirt. Basically, if u can feel it, wash it off|||i carry handsanitizer in my pocket.


Yes i would wash your hands unless ur not going to touch anything on ur face. You can get sick from not washing ur hands especially after blowing ur nose or picking it lol|||Yes. Because when you blow your nose alot of mucus and germs come out. When you wash your hands you reduce your chance of getting sick, or getting some one else sick.|||Totally. I would depending on how %26quot;much%26quot; stuff came out. Alot, and I would. Not alot, and I would%26#039;nt.|||Always have tissues and hand sanitizer on hand, so that you won%26#039;t need to wash your hands.|||Yes. Just think H1N1. Please wash your hands after blowing your nose. Please.|||It depends if u got any boogers on ur fingers cuz they leaked through the tissue.|||Yes!!!!! Most definitely.|||Depends on where you live. Some people think its nasty, others dont care. YES!!%26gt;!%26gt;!%26gt;%26gt;!|||Yes, but usually people are covered by the tissue, or at least I hope.|||You actually have to ask?|||Ofcourse You should!!!|||Yes you sicko!|||Yes.|||Yes|||Yes. because you will be spreading unwanted germs.|||hell yea!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


u wudnt want ur germs to get into wat u eat!


+ its nasty!|||I don%26#039;t wash my hands! after blowing my nose so no it%26#039;s not necessary!|||Yes!!
