I tape my mouth and then my nose holes close up
in the middle of the night.

I don't see any benefit if you use nasal pillows. However, if you use a nose
"covering" type of mask (Activa, CL2 Simple Cushion, etc) it will probably help, but so do Breathe Rite Strips.

I would not stick anything in my nose without medical advice and direction. I just wouldn't.
Have you seen an Ear Nose and Throat physician (ENT)? Do you use a saline irrigation? When I need it, it works for me. When I first started on therapy back in January one or the other of my nasal passage would close almost immediately. Now, with humidification and generic Flonase I rarely have closures and then one side only late in the night and they do not seem to affect my therapy.
Good Luck

Only go straight, don't know.
Looks to me like a completely harmless and possibly helpful thing.

I'm with Snoozin'!
I would never use such a device without medical supervision.
(Even then, don't know that I could tolerate it! )

Folks, I must admit that I've been wanting something like this for a long time!DreamStalker wrote:Just watch out what you are aiming at when you sneeze!
In addition to narrow nasal passages, I have some scar tissue on one side due to surgery.
The company offers a medium and large for one price. I've inquired as to the size of the medium, and WHY they don't have a "small".
IF I follow through with this, I'll let you-all know...still thinking about it. Sure don't want the ends of my nose to look like basketballs in the mornings!!! Or stretch marks !

They are afraid you might inhale it if they make it too small...and WHY they don't have a "small".
LOL

I was wondering about that also, but they stress NOT to separate the two "spheres".oldgearhead wrote:They are afraid you might inhale it if they make it too small...and WHY they don't have a "small".

...could be to avoid liability in case a child got ahold of one?
No reply to email that has been read though!
