Nasal Dilators (Nose Inserts) for Congestion Relief

Nasal dilators (nose inserts) are small, flexible devices placed inside the nostrils to widen nasal passages, improve airflow, and reduce congestion.

Types

• External nasal strips (adhesive)
• Internal stents (silicone/plastic)
• Adjustable dilators
• Sleep-specific vs. daytime use

Benefits

• Relieves congestion from allergies, colds, sinusitis, deviated septum.
• Improves nasal breathing during sleep/exercise.
• Non-pharmacologic, reusable, low cost.

Consult a clinician if congestion persists; structural issues may need surgical correction.
