Dried nasal mucus : ウィキペディア英語版 | Dried nasal mucus
Dried nasal mucus, a piece of which is colloquially known as a boogie, booger, or bogey is found in the nose and is a result of drying of the normally viscous colloidal mucus (commonly known as snot).〔(【引用サイトリンク】 What's a Booger? )〕 ==Formation==
The mucous membranes in the nasal cavity constantly produce a wet mucus that lines the cavity and removes dust and pathogens from the air flowing through. For the most part, the cilia that also line the cavity work to move the mucus down the nasal cavity to the pharynx where it can be swallowed. Not all of the mucus stays fluid enough to be moved by the cilia. The closer the mucus is to being in the nasal vestibule and near the nostril opening, the more moisture it loses to the outside air, and the more likely it is to dry out and become stuck.
