<p>The invention concerns a method and device for administering a quantity of fluid to the nose. The device utilised comprises an inhaler with which a specific quantity of saline solution or other fluid can be introduced and thereafter inhaled in the nose. The inhaler consists of a tube-shaped element whose one end is arranged as a holder for containing a specific quantity fluid by being immersed in a fluid, whereby the said holder is preferably developed from the said tube-shaped element being bent at one end to form a curve or a water trap, and whose other end is arranged as a nostril-shaped nozzle to press against the said nostril and form an air-tight seal. During a cold or when there is another reason to inhale saline solution into the nose, the tube's curved end is immersed in the said saline solution so that the curve fills with fluid, after which the nozzle is pressed against one nostril and the fluid is inhaled into the nose while the other nostril is sealed-off.</p> |
