What to do if you snore at night

Snoring is also called snoring, which is caused by the vibration of the pharyngeal mucous membrane edges and mucous membrane surface secretions when the airflow from the upper airway passes through during sleep. Common treatments for snoring include general treatment, etiologic treatment, surgical treatment and wearing a ventilator. 1. General Treatment: Commonly, people suffering from snoring are characterized by obesity, incorrect sleeping position and smoking and alcohol abuse. Patients need to lose weight, sleep on the side and quit smoking and drinking to relieve the symptoms of snoring. 2. Treatment of Causes: Some snoring symptoms may be caused by diseases, such as hypothyroidism, which need to be treated. 3. Surgical treatment: Surgical treatment includes two types of ear, nose and throat surgery and oral and maxillofacial surgery. The main treatment is to correct the anatomical narrowing of the nose and the pharynx, expand the area of the oropharyngeal cavity, and relieve the obstruction of the upper airway or reduce the airway resistance. Common surgical procedures include tonsil surgery, uvulopalatopharyngoplasty and so on. 4. Wearing ventilator treatment: If the snoring cannot be improved due to the relaxation of pharyngeal muscles or poor weight loss, you can wear positive pressure ventilation ventilator treatment to improve the snoring. Severe snoring symptoms may cause repeated pauses in sleep breathing, causing lack of oxygen in the brain blood and inducing various cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases. Snoring patients should pay attention to it and go to the hospital in time to avoid delaying the condition.
