Is it normal that i block my nose when i sneeze?

I've been blocking my nose when I sneeze for years and I mean like 8 years because I had dust allergy at the time and saw a friend do it so I decided to copy what he did by holding my nose when I sneezed. Since then whenever I don't hold my nose the sneeze is really aggressive? like something vibrates in between my nose and my mouth and I just googled it and it says some guy messed up his throat by holding it so i'ce decided to stop doing it, but I was wondering if this meant I've permanently destroyed a thing inside my nose or if I'm still safe? I've had no problems yet in my throat or nasal area due to this and wonder if stopping will just bring everything back to normal.

    I sneeze without restraint when I'm alone and not near any food I'm preparing for myself and other people. And trust me, to me it feels like I'm having an orgasm.

    My cousin almost died from doing that. He popped a blood vessel in his neck from the pressure. Major pain. I always sneeze loudly, when I am alone. If I am in public I let out all of my breath before I sneeze then there isn't much wind to make a loud sneeze.

      Op here, the reason why I block my nose isn't just to stop myself from making noise, if I don't block my nose it kinda hurts and something between my nose and the roof of my young kinda vibrates? Not sure how to explain it but its not very relieving. I'm just wondering if that mean i've already fucked up my nose or what.

    My grandpa used to sneeze really loud. You know those sneezes that are so loud that they wake the cat, and make the dog start barking?
