Sun sneezing, the photic sneeze reflex, causes some people to sneeze when subjected to bright light, usually from the sun. It's not clear the proportion of people who actually suffer from this condition, and to what degree.
As I understand it, Photic sneezing is recognized by the medical community as an inherited trait. According to familydoctor.org about one out of every thresneezing peoplee people sneeze when exposed to bright light.
However most people have some sensitivity to light that can trigger a sneeze.
Have you ever had the feeling that you are about to sneeze, but it just gets stuck? Next time that happens, try looking toward a bright light briefly (but don't look right into the sun) - see if that doesn't unstick a stuck sneeze!
I have this condition, isneezing peoplef you can call it one. Just whenever i get out in the sun and I am subjected to the light i get this intense urge to sneeze, and it keeps on after that. I also get chill bumps when i sneeze. Its really uncomfortable when i am swimming... anyone else suffer from that?
I'ld say about 40% of everyone does this.
