Any idea’s for snoring? (besides pillow smothering)?
My partner drives me insane!! I am sure a lot of people go though this. What actually works? We have tried sprays that work on and off.. Any ideas? Thanks.
Yeah.. go to your dentist..
Ask them if they have nasal strips which goes over the nose. Basically a nasal strip is a piece of flexible plastic embedded in a sticking plaster. The strip is attached across the outside of the nose where the plastic automatically tries to straighten itself out.
The result is a gentle, continuous pressure pulling the nostrils open. This effectively widens the nasal passage and allows for improved airflow. For many people this can be enough to improve the breathing and make a significant difference to their snoring problem.
Most brands of nasal strips are available in different sizes. It’s important to buy the right size – the strip should over the nose only. If it extends to the cheek then the pressure of the plastic will be severely reduced.
Also.. to increase the chance of it working you should:
*not smoke
*don’t drink an hour before sleeping
*sleep on your side
*breathe through your nose
*lose weight
*raise your head with an extra pillow
The best bet is just to see a doctor or dentist,
and they could also diagnose him for sleep apnea.
(Obstructive sleep apnea can be caused by obstruction to or collapse of the upper airways during sleep. Such obstruction may be the result of illness, genetic makeup, lifestyle issues or simple age. A common symptom is snoring, although not all heavy snorers suffer from sleep apnea.)
for now.. you might need ear plugs or muffs
hope this helps!
When he/she is sleeping take a hammer and bash there skulls in……..after that go eat cherioes

Nose strips can help. If snoring is frequent, he may need to see a doctor to have a sleep study to determine if it is caused by sleep apnea. Sleep apnea is a condition when one stops breathing at times when asleep. Very dangerous, but treatable with positive pressure device.

ear plugs… for you.
Actually, check their tonsils out. I snored terribly, which was due to having enlarged tonsils. Once they were removed, I stopped snoring. Same with my eldest son. He snored so loud you could her him between to closed doors with his bedroom down the hall from ours. His snoring also stopped when his tonsils were removed.

To some degree, the Breathe Right strips work. My husband used to take them on camping trips because the other scoutmasters kidded him so much.
But frankly, you might as well get used to it if you’re going to stay with this person. My husband can shake the house, but I’ve grown so used to it, I have trouble sleeping without it. At least I know he’s safe at home every night…and there when I need him.

breath right strips can work wonderes for some snorers if that dosnt work they may have a bad sleepapnea get a pair of ear plugs too

Get your partner checked for sleep apnea. An ENT can check and see if there are any obstructions in the nasal passages, first.
If sleep apnea is the problem, then the treatment for that may help prevent other health problems (heart).
My husband’s snoring improved after he went off the gluten grains (wheat, barley, oats and rye) because some of his respiratory condition was being caused by his gluten grain allergy.
Best of luck.

I poke my wife in the ribs and tell her to roll on her side.
The best remedy? Lose weight.
If not, have a sleep study done, and they will go from there with a CPAP, BiPAP, or there are some extremely painful and minimally helpful surgical options…

See the doctor and explain the problem,ask if a sleep study is in order. If it is, the doctor will tell you about the options of breathing machine for sleep apnea . The machine regulates breathing, a little hard to get used to the first week but after that the snorer won’t sleep without it, they will feel more rested than they ever have.

depends how bad it is… wake him and make him sleep on his side , never his back. achohol always makes it worse. good luck. And try ear plugs also but if you have kids you can’t do that.
