Treatment of snoring

summary

Respiratory tract stenosis caused by various reasons, mainly the upper respiratory tract stenosis above the tracheal plane, can cause snoring or even apnea, such as chronic rhinitis, nasal septum deviation caused by nasal stenosis. Hypertrophy of tonsil, relaxation of pharynx and hypertrophy of tongue cause pharyngeal stenosis. Then some patients put forward the treatment of snoring.

Treatment of snoring

Treatment 1: as long as 3-4 drops of mouthwash are diluted with warm water before going to bed, the snoring can be weakened and stopped. This kind of mouthwash contains a kind of resin oil, which has a special Anti Snoring effect. It can improve the blood supply of the pharyngeal and laryngeal mucosa, and make the pharyngeal and laryngeal cavity mucosa in a state of full blood supply. The soft palate and uvula will not vibrate due to relaxation, and the snoring will be weakened and stopped.

Treatment 2: pinch the thumb nail on the tip of the index finger, on the outside, about 2mm away from the nail gap, press more for a while, snore when sleeping, and the pillow should not be too high.

Treatment 3: use snore suppressor during sleep. The principle is: by placing personalized instruments in the oral cavity, the patient's mandible is fixed in an appropriate forward position, and the forward extension of the mandible makes the genioglossus pull the tongue forward, so that the breathing channel at the back of the tongue is opened. At the same time, the forward movement of the tongue reduces the pressure of the tongue body on the uvula, and the posterior respiratory channel is opened.

matters needing attention

On this, I would like to remind you: sleep posture should not be arbitrary. Lying on the right side is beneficial to relax the limbs and protect the heart, and people with heart failure should avoid lying on the left side; sleeping on the back will increase the risk of snoring and apnea; sleeping on the prone will compress the ribs and squeeze the heart.
