What Are Nasal Aspirators?

0

Nasal aspirators are devices used to suction mucus from noses. They are typically used for people who can’t blow this material out, such as babies or others with issues of limited mobility or understanding. Most aspirators are marketed toward use with babies, are easy to find in baby supply stores, and they come in different shapes and varieties. The simplest of the nasal aspirators is a bulb syringe, which has a squeezable bulb attached to a narrow neck with an opening. A squeeze of the bulb results in reverse action, where as the bulb refills with it air it has a vacuum like effect. When gently inserted a small way into a baby’s nose this can suck out some mucus, helping to alleviate a certain amount of nasal congestion.
