Sir. i am pregnant with 23 weeks. my nose has grown in size making me look bad. plus at night my breathing is not regular for blocked nose and my snoring has increased. please help.

Blood flow: The blood flow to all mucous membranes increases in pregnancy and can increase snoring and make you feel like you are congested. This will improve after you have the baby. In the mean time the strips that you can put over your nose to help open the airway can help decrease your snoring as can the devices you put in your nose to keep it open at night. Hope this helps.
