A device for delivering a medicated product into a bodily cavity includes a barrel member having a dispensing end, a proximal end, which is positioned opposite the dispensing end, and a bore, which extends through the barrel member. The bore is sized and shaped so as to receive a medicated product therein and includes an opening formed in the dispensing end of the barrel member. The opening is sized and shaped so as to permit a medicated product received in the bore to be dispensed therethrough. The applicator is also provided with a plunger member movably extending through the bore of the barrel member for dispending a medicated product from the bore through the opening. The barrel member includes at least one substantially flexible section located between the dispending end and the proximal end such that the barrel member is bendable about the flexible section.

1. A device for delivering a medicated product into a bodily cavity, comprising a barrel member having a dispensing end, a proximal end, which is positioned opposite said dispensing end, and a bore, which extends through said barrel member, said bore being sized and shaped so as to receive a medicated product therein and including an opening formed in said dispensing end of said barrel member, said opening being sized and shaped so as to permit a medicated product received in said bore to be dispensed therethrough; and a plunger member sized to extend in said bore of said barrel member for dispensing a medicated product from said bore through said opening, said barrel member having at least one substantially flexible section and a rigid section, an end of said at least one substantially flexible section terminating at said dispensing end and an opposite end of said at least one substantially flexible section terminating at said rigid section, said at least one substantially flexible section made entirely from a flexible material, an end of said rigid section removably attached to said opposite end of said at least one substantially flexible section and an opposite end of said rigid section terminating at said proximal end, said barrel member including an outer surface made entirely from a rigid material from said end of said rigid section to said opposite end of said rigid section, said at least one substantially flexible section having an angled, tapered tip, said plunger member including a shaft with a ribbed section and a rod section having an end, and a first disc mounted to said end of said rod section, said first disc having a first circumference, said rod section having a second circumference smaller than said first circumference of said first disc. 2. The device of claim 1, wherein said plunger member has at least one substantially flexible section such that said plunger member is bendable about said at least one flexible section thereof. 3. The device of claim 1, wherein said barrel member is sized and shaped so as to receive a non-solid medicated product. 4. The device of claim 3, wherein said non-solid medicated product includes a medicated cream or ointment. 5. The device of claim 4, further comprising sealing means for releasably sealing said opening of said barrel member so as to contain said non-solid product in said barrel member. 6. The device of claim 1, wherein said barrel member is sized and shaped so as to receive a solid medicated product. 7. The device of claim 1, wherein said plunger member has a second disc at an interface between said ribbed and rod sections. 8. The device of claim 7, wherein said ribbed section of said plunger member is substantially rigid. 9. The device of claim 8, wherein said rod section of said plunger member is substantially flexible. 10. The device of claim 9, wherein said plunger member has a thumb platform at one end of said ribbed section. 11. The device of claim 1, wherein said end of said rigid section is inserted into said at least one substantially flexible section by a friction fit. 12. The device of claim 1, wherein said end of said rigid section is inserted into said at least one substantially flexible section by an interference fit. 13. The device of claim 1, wherein said rigid section extends to said proximal end, and said at least one substantially flexible section extends to said dispensing end. 14. The device of claim 1, wherein said rigid section is made entirely from a rigid material. 15. The device of claim 14, wherein said at least one substantially flexible section is a single, unitary component. 16. The device of claim 15, wherein said rigid section is a single, unitary component. 17. A device for delivering a medicated non-solid product into a bodily cavity, comprising a two-piece barrel member having a dispensing end, a proximal end, which is positioned opposite said dispensing end, and a bore, which extends through said two-piece barrel member, said bore being sized and shaped so as to receive a medicated non-solid product therein and including an opening formed in said dispensing end of said two-piece barrel member, said opening being sized and shaped so as to permit a medicated non-solid product received in said bore to be dispensed therethrough; and a plunger member sized to extend in said bore of said two-piece barrel member for dispensing a medicated non-solid product from said bore through said opening, said two-piece barrel member having a single substantially flexible section and a single rigid section, an end of said single substantially flexible section terminating at said dispensing end and an opposite end of said single substantially flexible section terminating at said single rigid section, said single substantially flexible section made entirely from a flexible material, an end of said single rigid section removably attached to said opposite end of said single substantially flexible section and an opposite end of said single rigid section terminating at said proximal end, said two-piece barrel member including an outer surface made entirely from a rigid material from said end of said single rigid section to said opposite end of said single rigid section, said single substantially flexible section having an angled, tapered solid tip with an aperture.
