Treatment for snoring in girls

Snoring is a condition that many people experience, and in daily life, it is more common to see men snoring, but in fact, women can also snore. There are many reasons for snoring, it may be due to being too tired during the day, it may be due to rhinitis, enlarged tonsils and so on. When facing snoring, people need to take timely measures to treat it. Here are some treatments for snoring in girls.

Reasons why girls snore

Snoring caused by nasal reasons: deviated nasal septum, nasal polyps, enlarged nasal conchae, congestion and hypertrophy of nasal mucosa, chronic rhinitis, etc.

Snoring caused by pharyngeal reasons: enlarged tonsils and adenoids, enlarged uvula, enlarged and drooping soft palate, and enlarged tongue.

Congenital anatomical malformations cause snoring: mandibular developmental malformations (such as micrognathia), mandibular retrusion, etc.

Snoring is caused by functional reasons: the airway is normal when you are awake during the day, but the muscle tension around the airway decreases during sleep. In addition, the root of the tongue falls back when lying on your back, causing airway narrowing and snoring.

Treatment for female snoring

1. Sichuan pepper

Take 5-10 Sichuan peppercorns and soak them in a cup of boiling water before going to bed. Drink it after the water has cooled down (do not swallow the Sichuan peppercorns). Take it for 5 consecutive days to treat snoring.

2. Mouthwash

Just dilute 3 to 4 drops of mouthwash with warm water and gargle before going to bed to reduce or stop snoring. This mouthwash contains a resin oil that can increase the blood supply to the throat mucosa, so that the throat mucosa is in a state of sufficient blood supply. The soft palate and uvula will not vibrate due to relaxation, and the snoring will be weakened and stop.

3. Otto Method

Ask a dentist to make a palate for you and wear it in your mouth every night. It can support the drooping soft palate and press the tongue to prevent it from being compressed, thereby preventing snoring.

4. Glass ball method

Sew a child's glass marble loosely into the shoulder flap under the collar of the pajama so that it can slide from side to side. Snorers generally do not snore when they are lying on their side or prone. When the snorer wants to turn over and lie on his back, the glass ball on his back will be pressed, and he will immediately turn over to his side or prone. In this way, the snoring will not occur or will be significantly reduced. Or you can sew a small pocket in the middle of the back of pajamas and put a smallest child-sized leather ball or tennis ball in it. This will prevent the snorer from lying on his back and can greatly reduce snoring.
