Before you can start suctioning, you should first clean your nose. Use a bulb syringe, and place it in the inside of the nostril. Once inside, squeeze the mucus out. Repeat the procedure as often as necessary. If you don't have mucus to suction, you can use a salt water solution. Afterward, wash your hands thoroughly with soap and water.

The suction device has a small rubber tip that you insert into the nostril. After inserting the rubber tip, slowly release the suction device to suction out the mucus. Depending on the mucus' thickness, you may have to repeat this step multiple times. To ensure that you don't miss any mucus, rinse your hands well after using the suction device.

In addition to cleaning your nose, an aspirator can remove mucus from your nose. You can use a commercial aspirator or a disposable bulb syringe. You should follow the manufacturer's directions to make sure the suction device is effective. Before using an aspirator, always ensure the suction tube is clean and sterile before use. To prevent reinfection, rinse the device after use and rinse it after each use.

If you're not sure whether you should use a bulb syringe, try using a nasal aspirator. You can also use a bulb syringe, which is a small rubber object with a long tip. Clean the bulb syringe with a bowl of water before using it on a baby. Using this method may help relieve congestion.
