Using a sterile air cannula, you gently thread the end 1-2" into the dog's nose. You then inject lidocaine into the skin on top of the dog's nose, wait for the lidocaine to numb the nerves, then carefully suture the exposed part of the cannula to the top of the dog's nose to keep it in place.
A good treatment for dog allergy is nasal spray that will relieve your nasal sensitivity.
Perforation of the nasal septum as a result of using a nasal cannula and non-humidified oxygen has been reported.
The oxygen nasal canula should be facing in the same direction as the long axis of the nostrils.

Nothing good. You should take your dog to your veterinarian and let him know what is going on. My top concerns would be chronic nasal bacterial infection, nasal fungal infection, nasal cancer or bleeding disorder.
A nasal catheter is a medical device used to deliver oxygen or other gases directly into the nasal passages. It consists of a thin tube that is inserted into the nostrils, allowing for comfortable and continuous flow of air or medication. Nasal catheters are commonly used in patients who require supplemental oxygen, such as those with respiratory conditions. They are preferred for their ease of use and non-invasive nature compared to other forms of oxygen delivery.
Oxygen is delivered directly to the patient through oxygen therapy devices such as nasal cannulas, oxygen masks, and oxygen tanks. These devices provide a controlled flow of concentrated oxygen for the patient to breathe in, helping to increase the oxygen levels in their blood.

In a 4 liter flow rate via nasal prongs, the estimated FiO2 (fraction of inspired oxygen) is around 36% to 40%. However, this can vary depending on the patient's breathing pattern and the fit of the nasal prongs. It's recommended to monitor the patient's oxygen saturation and adjust the flow rate as needed to maintain appropriate oxygen levels.
I am sorry for that, but there isn't anything to do.
The three methods used to administer oxygen are via nasal cannula (delivering low to moderate levels of oxygen), oxygen mask (providing higher concentrations of oxygen), and non-invasive ventilation (such as CPAP or BiPAP for more severe respiratory distress).
Common issues that can affect a dog's nasal passage include infections, allergies, foreign objects lodged in the nose, nasal tumors, and anatomical abnormalities. These issues can cause symptoms such as nasal discharge, sneezing, difficulty breathing, and changes in behavior. It is important to consult a veterinarian for proper diagnosis and treatment.
