How to stop snoring
9 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Find the cause first: Many factors can lead to snoring: the anatomy of your mouth and sinuses, alcohol consumption, allergies, a cold, and your weight. If you wake up with unrefreshed sleep or doze off during the daytime, you may be at risk for obstructive sleep apnea. See your PCP for further evaluation of the snoring. http://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/ency/article/003207.htm

Agree w Dr Patel: The reason for the snoring needs to be determined before a fix can be identified. Sometimes a sleep study is needed for this reason.
