Thank you for the clear and precise video on how to use sprays!! Finally saw a doctor and she prescribed these, so I'm about to use them for the 1st time to help my sinus issues (after suffering for 20 years, lol). Hope they work, and at least I know I'll be using them correctly. 😊

@@JHPMedicalUK Just a quick update - today is ONLY day 4 of using the fluticasone propionate (steroid), along with azelastine (an antihistamine) sprays and I can't believe the difference already!! My doctor said give at a good month, but I can already see improvement. I'm thrilled that I'm not spending hours in the morning dealing with a runny nose or a stuffy one at night. Again, I really appreciate the instructions on how to use them properly. I probably would've used them incorrectly if I didn't watch this. Take care! 🥰
This is great for medical students as well. Thank you Dr
this actually helped me a lot thank you some much doctor!
If I could blow my nose, I wouldn't need the nasal spray
Very well said. Thanks
46 year old male, still learned a bunch just now from this video. I found this video while looking for longterm natural nasel Corticosteroids to help with my chronic stuffiness problems.

I’m 22 and I have allergic rhinitis and asthma since ever and I just found out that I use my nasal spray in a wrong way 😰
Used exactly as you said. When i prime, i hear the 'spray' noise. When its up my nostril, i dont hear it, even though im pressing correctly. So...i dont know if its gone up and sprayed...its really tricky medication nasal spray to use and i never know if its getting to where it should......
Thankyou !
I got it prescribed because I have a nasal polyp. Should I just press the polyp back as well and then spray or do I have to move it out of the way?
Can i use mometasone furoate chronic ? Like forever ? i use it 60 to 90 days , two times in a year
How are these steroids with addiction? I know steroids when used for skinn can be awefull for the user, can this make the condition worse when you stop using it?
Accidentally sprayed nasonex in my right eye.what is the first aid for this?
If you are dealing with eustation tube issues you need to bend forward so the spray hits the area of the eustation tube area.
🙏🏻 THANK YOU

This will depend on your prescription. Speak with your doctor.
I hate Nasal Sprays with too short tips. It can't even reach inside the nose + fingers gets in the way. Why don't they do a tip that sprays 180 degrees? All sprays 360 degrees and hits the nasal septum where it doesn't do nothing (only makes the septum bleed).
Slickdeals brought me here.
