Snoring must first be differentiated from Sleep Apnea (respiratory arrest during sleep), where the main complaint is snoring. Some changes in daily life can be a remedy for the solution in patients with Simple Snoring detected by both examination and tests.
What are your anti-snoring opinions?
We can treat or partially reduce snoring with simple measures that can be taken to answer the question of what is the solution to snoring.
- If there is excess weight, get rid of them,
- sleeping on your side,
- not drinking alcohol before bedtime,
- If there is a smoking habit, it must be quit.
Snoring should not be considered harmless because not being able to breathe properly during sleep can cause serious problems for your health.
In addition, if there is a disease that prevents breathing through the nose that can be detected during physical examination, which can cause mouth breathing and cause snoring, such as deviated septum, nasal polyps, turbinate hypertrophies, allergic rhinitis and space-occupying formations in the nasal cavities, these diseases should be treated.
In addition, the shape of the tissues in the mouth can be an explanation for snoring. The narrower the airway, the louder the snoring sound. For example, a longer and softer tongue than normal can cause a very loud snoring. Large tonsils can also be a cause of snoring. Snoring can be corrected with appropriate surgical interventions for soft palate, small tongue and tonsils.
