Nasal cleaners are not very useful in adults as unlike babies adult produces more mucous and adults can clean themselves. Only during infections there may be excessive mucous production which needs to be treated by medications.

Consult nearby ENT specialist for confirmation of diagnosis and appropriate treatment if required
