Expert Answer

A hamster sneezing in spasms may have caught a cold. With a cold there may also be nasal discharge, so give hamster-specific cold medicine and keep it warm.

It could also be nasal irritation from a foreign object or a strong smell; in that case, move the hamster away or remove the irritant, and it usually recovers quickly.
