I frequently tell patients that coughing and sneezing is a very powerful action. I have seen many patients injury their backs and necks and even cause disc herniations from these actions.
Had a patient bring me this article about a person who recently tried to hold in a sneeze and ruptured his throat!
Has anyone injured themselves coughing or sneezing?
He tried to hold in a sneeze and ended up in the hospital on a feeding tube
