I'm 25 this year, and I always snore in recent years. As a woman, I feel very embarrassed and have a lot of pressure. It seems that I can snore only when I have something wrong. So I went to the hospital to see a doctor. The doctor said it's OK that I have a little inflammation. Now I'm cured. Today I'd like to share with you how to treat snoring with traditional Chinese medicine.

How to treat snoring in TCM

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

Here, I would like to remind you that snoring is caused by upper airway relaxation and collapse and tongue base falling back during sleep, resulting in upper airway stenosis. At this time, when the airflow passes through the narrow pharynx, the soft tissue in pharynx cavity vibrates and snores. Obese people, prone to play a narrow situation, while pregnant women during pregnancy, not very good weight control, so that they become obese, resulting in upper respiratory tract will become narrower, which may be the reason why pregnant women are prone to snore.
