My husband snores loudly strips and a nasal insert is not working is there anything else cover counter he can use?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Snoring: Studies show that 75% of snoring is caused by vibration of the soft palate, so many of the nasal devices won't solve the problem. There are otc oral inserts that pull the jaw forward and open the the throat . I am not endorsing any company but puresleep.Com sells a reliable device. There is a device that pulls the tongue forward via a suction apparatus that looks promising. Ent exam advised.
