Millions of people have a problem with snoring.
There are many reasons why this condition occurs.
From simple inexpensive changes in lifestyle to more costly medical procedures, sufferers hope to find a solution.
Because this affliction effects different people for different reasons and at different times, a solution that works for one will not necessarily work for all.
People who breathe through their mouth when they sleep tend to snore.
This may occur due to air passing over the soft palate in the back of the throat, causing it vibrate.
Over the counter throat sprays claim to lubricate the back of the throat, decreasing the vibration and minimizing the noise.
Ensuring your head is properly elevated reportedly keeps air passages open.
There are videos demonstrating before and after results for the following solutions.
If a person sleeps on their back and snores, it is caused by the tongue falling into the back of the throat and closing off air passages.
A number of solutions reportedly alleviate this problem.
Sleeping on your side instead eliminates passages from closing.
Wearing a specially designed mouthpiece to pull the bottom jaw forward, preventing the tongue from falling back and closing passages.
Wearing a chin strap to close the mouth entirely.
Persons wearing mouthpieces and chin straps swear by their effectiveness.
If a snorer goes to bed with clear nasal passages, but wakes up later that night or in the morning not able to breathe through their nose, they may have an allergy to dust mites.
This person subsequently breathes through their mouth, has soft palate vibration and snoring.
The solution for this dilemma is to use vinyl pillow and mattress covers and wash bedding in hot water weekly.
Likewise if an individual is constantly congested and they are prone to snoring, if they alleviate the congestion, they may alleviate the snoring.
Physicians state that overweight persons who snore do so because there are fatty deposits in the soft palate which vibrate.
Reducing weight reduces the size of the deposits and reduces the likelihood that snoring will occur.
They also suggest that consuming alcohol before bed causes throat muscles to be more relaxed than usual which leads to a greater tendency for vibration and snoring.
A health care provider can determine if medical intervention is necessary.
Injections with specific medications can eliminate soft tissue movement.
A stiffer palate removes vibration and stops snoring.
Surgical procedures are also available.
