How to use a nasal spray properly | correct and incorrect ways

Learn how to get the best out of your nasal spray and the correct ways to administer it by understanding some basic nasal anatomy.
Whether you’re using a nasal spray for hay fever, allergies, a cold, nasal dryness or any nasal problem, it’s important to get your nasal spray technique right.
Using a nasal spray correctly means that you can be reassured that the contents are more likely to get to where they need to be and should work more effectively.
The video demonstrates the proper techniques below.
Helpful hygiene tip: never share the same spray bottle as this may spread infection and could potentially worsen your condition. Clearly labelling your bottle is a great way to ensure that there’s no confusion between who’s nasal spray belongs to whom.

! Always read the label. Follow directions for use. If symptoms persist, worsen or change unexpectedly, talk to your health professional.

Best explanation of nasal cavities I have seen anywhere. Excellent visuals. Thank you.

[@rae0521]

Great demo. Thank you. It might be helpful if the spray bottle nozzle was designed to pattern the spray correctly instead of shooting it straight in.

[@FLONasalHealth]

Our sprays do deliver a wider range than most nasal sprays so can provide a more thorough cleanse :)

Good to hear that you are feeling good for 62 Abdul! :)

[@marcuslopez2190]

Came to see if I’ve been doing this right apparently before the mist nasal spray came out I was definitely doing it wrong

[@koblerville923]

At three minutes in where the advice is on where to point the tip, that's what I've been missing.

So how’s everyone’s quarantine going lol

[@HighHell99]

Meh, had trouble breathing last week, thought it was covid, but turns out it was an asthma attack. But we all good now 🙂 What about you?

[@YurBlvedllie]

I mean its extremely boring but other than that its fine.

[@FLONasalHealth]

@@HighHell99 Sorry to hear and must be frightening. If you have any respiratory allergies it makes sense to wash your nose every day with a nasal saline or sinus wash to get rid of any allergens or germs that are lodged in the nose.

damn i shoved the tip of the nasal spray way too deep in my nose🗿i can breathe through my nose now but i’m still dealing with dripping and pain on my cheeks/cheekbones

[@Scarletdollie]

Ah shit, I've been shoving that tip way in my nose this whole time and spray

[@brantan9691]

Hi, does a nasal spray still work if the passage way is obstructed by the turbinate?

[@NinesRK]

Ive been having problem with mucus dripping in the back of my throat yet I can get rid of it. Maybe I should try this.

[@FLONasalHealth]

We would suggest you try a sinus wash kit instead as much more thorough and reaches towards back of throat too. Try Flo Sinus Care from all Australian Pharmacies and good luck!

[@FLONasalHealth]

We recommend Flo Sinus Care for this!

[@pctlvr]

thx so much

You'll need to ask your health professional about why the ear popping etc.

[@JordanFavazzaView]

I have a really bad pain in both ears. I think it’s in my me eustation tube. No ear doctors can help me. Can anyone help??

[@FLONasalHealth]

Hi Jordan, have you tried a larger volume sinus wash? if your problem is due to mucosal inflammation within the ear canal or caused by an Eustachian Tube blockage from excessive mucus production, it may help to use a large volume irrigation. It might also be a good idea to treat for allergic rhinitis (hayfever) if you suspect you may have hayfever symptoms. Good luck! We hope you feel better soon.

[@JordanFavazzaView]

@@FLONasalHealth could I talk with one of your ear doctors on the phone tomorrow? I will be brief and short on my symptoms and what I’ve done to try to fix it.

[@paprikhan5377]

I have been suffering from runny nose and unbearable sneezing 🤧 for more than 7years. How can I get rid of? Can I use this?

[@FLONasalHealth]

Yes its a good idea to use a nasal saline for nasal symptoms like these. Have you ever been diagnosed with allergies/hayfever? Perhaps you should consider an antihistamine nasal spray. We recommend you use a nasal saline first because it cleanses the area and helps any medicated nasal sprays work more effectively. You should talk to a health professional if you have had these symptoms for so many years!

[@inf4rno350]

Holy same here but like since I was born 👌

[@Sunlineish]

Generally an anti histamine helps with this. Have you worked out what you're allergic to? Claratyne, Zyrtec and Telfast are brand examples. Garlic/horseradish and Vitamin C is great too. Flo nasal spray is not an anti histamine spray. It is basically for a blocked nose. If your allergies are so severe, a good Kinesiologist can be of help.

[@ayeshanazneen3573]

I just lost ma smell a week ago is it a symptom of covid?

[@referralacc1033]

Yes

[@FLONasalHealth]

Certainly worth getting tested to check.

[@invictuz4803]

3:21 you say to point it towards the ear lobe but the tip is clearly pointing towards the inner corner of the eye. Which one is it?

[@Rex_Thegentleman]

I used a nasal moisturizing spray and it accidentally went down my throat i could taste it ewww is thatt normal??

[@abdulmuhaimin5861]

Can I use this if lost ma smell ...it's been a month I still can't smell anything ..

[@claudiairrgang4755]

Go to a doctor fam

[@FLONasalHealth]

Agree with Claudia, you might need to go to doc or get tested.

[@brocscogmyre5592]

So I've been doing it wrongly for the past 35 years 😢

[@slenophile7107]

How to use it if we want it to hit Eustachian tube of ear??plz tell

[@FLONasalHealth]

Better off using a sinus irrigation rather than a nasal spray.

[@grv6209]

I have become dependent on nasal spray how can i fix it??

[@FLONasalHealth]

Hi Gaurav, do you mean a nasal decongestant spray? If you email us at [e-mail] we can send you some tips to fix this. :)

[@DEATHTRUTH]

who else is recovering from an ear infection?

[@FLONasalHealth]

Sorry to hear! A sinus wash may help ease off any pressure in the ear canal.

[@leebronchalimeg6955]

me! how are you feeling after 5 months? any update on the nasal spray method?

[@DEATHTRUTH]

@@leebronchalimeg6955 Feeling fine, symptoms like crackling sounds lasted for about a month after the inital pain/blockage period. I only use the spray for a few days after the infection has died down as per my doctors instructions.

[@leebronchalimeg6955]

did u also get muffled hearing during the sprayingprocess that time?

[@DEATHTRUTH]

@@leebronchalimeg6955 Yes there is nothing you can do about that. It's behind the ear drum so too far up for any spray.

[@yumiasror9719]

Hi can nasal spray cleans up of the Covid-19 virus? It’s been two weeks since I’ve exposed to Covid-19 and I still get positive PCR results. I really need to get negative PCR result to be able to travel to visit my son who is getting married next month.

[@BabyloveCinnabon]

Did you try it

[@FLONasalHealth]

Sorry for the late response. We cannot claim our products have effect on the C19 virus, however using a sinus wash kit rather than a saline spray, is a more effective way to help clear breathed in particles, viruses and allergens from the nose and sinuses. We hope you got the result you wanted in time!

[@nelrc6018]

Hadir

[@chemicalroam]

I got a bad taste in mouth and bad smell in nose kinda like a metal or like a mothball will this help?

[@FLONasalHealth]

You should talk to a health professional. It could be a sign of infection. Try also using a sinus wash as this cleans the nose, sinuses and throat and reduces the concentration of inflammatory matter.

[@aszeyoung]

It could be the Covid symptoms

[@chemicalroam]

@Bachelor of trading got tested positive of covid, this was 1 year ago it took about 3 weeks before the bad taste and bad smell go away. Also after it go away i lost my smell and taste which is funny lol but that only took around 5 days and everything is back to normal. Got covid tho

[@FLONasalHealth]

No idea what DG is? We are an Australian based company but its good to use a saline that is preservative-free and isotonic so just check the label or ask the Pharmacist you purchased it from.

[@YurBlvedllie]

@@FLONasalHealth oh uh DG stands for dollar general im from America.

[@countrygirl3186]

I have covid and my nose is stuffed

[@MM-xz3dw]

facts lmao girl same

[@FLONasalHealth]

We hope you're well on your way to recovery Country Girl! Using a (preservative-free) nasal saline spray or sinus wash can be of help as it thins mucus in your nose and reduces the concentration of inflammatory matter such as viruses and allergens in the nose.
