When I really do not want to sneeze, I press the tip of my tongue to the roof of my mouth. That usually does the trick

In what situation would I want or need to not sneeze? It’s a reflex ffs.

Stop being weird about bodily functions and stop giving medical advice.

I do, but if you think it is all contained in your hand then maybe learn about how aerosols and pressure differentials work.

If you raise tip of your nose the urge to sneeze just goes away. That's what this tip is about, not pinch your nose shut and release the kraken exploding your eardrums.
