Nasal Spray Question
OK - really stupid question....
How far up do you stick the thing? I was perscribed Nasocort and I'm afraid of either sticking it up too far or not far enough.
Can anyone offer advice???

Re: Nasal Spray Question
I do it I guess about 1/2 an inch. far enough so that all of the stuff really is going up my nose, but not so far I'm hitting cartilage and bones!

Re: Nasal Spray Question
I think it's Nasacort that I use and the ENT Dr told me to aim it towards the back of the nose, not up it.

Re: Nasal Spray Question
I bend my head over a little with the tip about an inch in.

Re: Nasal Spray Question
There's no little stopper tab on it so you can't put it in too far?
I used Nasonex and it went in about an inch. I was told to tilt my head forward and take care not to spray it on the seperation between the nostrils. To aim up and breathe in lightly when spraying.

Re: Nasal Spray Question
Thanks for the advice girls!
For some reason, I am pertified of nose sprays and just wanted to make sure that I was doing it right and wouldn't traumatize myself further!
