blowing

Nose-blowing, or blowing your nose, is the act of expelling nasal mucus by exhaling forcefully through the nose. This is usually done into a facial tissue or handkerchief, facial tissues being more hygienic as they are disposed of after each use while handkerchiefs are softer, environmentally-friendly, can be reused after washing and after more stylish. However handkerchiefs have become unpopular due to their unhygienic nature but are often better than sneezing into hands or clothes.
Nose-blowing may be used to alleviate nasal congestion or rhinorrhea (runny nose) resulting from colds, seasonal allergies, or to expel nasal irritants.
