i'm looking for a suction device to help family member with tonsil stones. If I remove the cup shape and add a tube, do you think it would work?

There is an opening in the top and bottom you will have to cap the top opening before u try but i really can't say

I can't answer about the pump, but for your family member with tonsil stones, have them try using a good tongue scraper. (I use the one made by Pureline.) It may not work in their situation, but when I use a tongue scraper, I go from getting a tonsil stone once or twice every week or so down to once every several months. I wish them the best of luck, and tonsil stones can be downright painful!

I think if u slide off the middle tube it would work. Cant promise. Also if u have little fish they can easily get sucked up.

HI..not sure. BUt suspect you can find extra suction cups at Bed, Bath and Beyond for things like that. I have had mine several months and they still work fo me.

I haven't personally tried this, but I can see no reason that it wouldn't work just fine. This device just moves your lower jaw forward a bit to help open the airway, but I do not think it will prevent a good fit/seal with the CPAP device. I'm using the device in order to prevent having to use the CPAP.

I did not try this on partialas I had full dentures. I don't see why it would not at least help as it does improve comfort by providing a cushion between the device and your gum tissue where the two meet.

I don't see any issue why it wouldn't work. As long as you can pull apart a couple of sections of tube close to the suction port, it should work just fine.

My husband doesn't, as he has an external catheter and night bag to stop him having to get up but I guess it could be. Depends on the reason for using it. Sorry I can't be more helpful.

I actually find it a bit uncomfortable for my neck with a normal pillow; I need a much softer pillow with the wedge I use (which is 7 inches not 12). The pillow is really designed more to alleviate reflux, which it does for me, and maybe reduce snoring if you have sleep apnea.

Attached is a pic of the mouth of the toy. Take a look and see if you think it would work for you? Hope this helps! http://www.pipedreamproducts.com/images/300dpi/rd179-01_05.jpg

Hi... former breastfeeder here... wouldn't the suction devices just need to evert the nipples just long enough for baby to get a good latch? I would think the repeated suction over the course of time nursing of the baby would do far more than any gadget toward any kind of permanent eversion of inverted nipples. I started out with normal nubs before nursing my children and it took years for my nipples to go from half inch long down to large nubs.

The little cup is for nasal, when you want to clear up any nasal issues. I have not used it yet, just the big one.

being a waterpik label, my educated guess would be yes! I am very happy with this device because it did work well. The tip is a tiny bit large, at least for my smaller nostrils, but it does the job and I got rid of a sinus infection that I had battled for almost a year. I reccommend using with Alkalol nasal wash. (Be sure to use distilled water in your nose!) hope this helps.

I have a 17 1/2" neck and the design of this device doesn't permit a good neck massage. The only way I can make it work is to literally bend the base into a curve, and I think such bending would damage the device long term. It works for shoulders, but the balls are on a plane that is too flat to get into neck muscles.

Yes ... works quite well. You will find 'hot spots' on it though, where the element is closer to the cup. They have little effect, and the tako yakis come out real good.

It should work, but as others have said, there are better solutions. The check valve helps to keep breath from fogging glasses and goggles, but those are available on inexpensive bra-cup filters as well.

Absolutely. There are different 'styles' of this product. I have tried several, but now know that the EXTRA type works best for me. It adheres very well, is comfortable, and removes easily in the morning. Just amazing how it opens the breathing passages for such restful sleep. Give it a try!

Yes, I believe so. I even use it to inflate my kids sport balls by adding a small needle adapter to it. Very useful!
