In the army, they know exactly how to win "a sleeping tiger." But savvy conscripts does not apply in the family. And the problem is serious! Regular household fraught with insomnia are not only undermining the spirit of the family, but also the deterioration of health due to accumulated fatigue.
What to do? Let's find out what you can do to get rid of snoring.
Article urgency inspired by watching the person close to me, who for several years trying to protect his family from the syndrome of "sleeping tiger." Having tried several methods, he never got rid of snoring, but found the best way out. But more on that later.
Before you rush into battle, I recommend reading the article Layfhakera, which revealed causes the occurrence of snoring. Often it is obesity, problems with the nose and soft palate.
What do we offer a variety of views? First of all, a healthy lifestyle, which is reduced at least to a moderate diet, abstinence from alcohol and smoking, and playing sports. For many, it is too long and difficult path, therefore Throw it as "unacceptable". It remains to walk the easier way. Let them face it.
bells and whistles
There will always be healers who want to cure your illness with the help of a miracle device. Applied to our problem, here you can include caps and clips from snoring.
mouth guard
Distributors for greater importance named caps intraoral devices to get rid of snoring and treat sleep apnea (breathing stops during sleep). A bit of theory, derived from the Internet, "Capa mounted in the mouth and promotes continuous flow of air to the lungs. Capa little separates the jaw up and down, and forcibly holds the lower jaw in a slightly extended position. As a result, the tongue muscles go into a state of tension, the soft palate is strengthened, resulting in a decrease or disappearance of vibration during breathing. "
The price of pleasure, depending on the geography of the service comes to a couple of hundred dollars. But here she is included as a cap (aligner), and concomitant medical care. For half an hour you will spend molding, that is, the mouthpiece will adjust to fit your jaw and willing to be patient. Getting used to the intraoral device will take some time.
But not all get to adapt. So my friend and could not come to terms with the strange sensation of something extra in your mouth. Plus, the gums began to ache. And snoring simply disappeared.
I almost forgot to mention that if you have problems with the bite, bleeding gums and teeth staggering is not recommended to install the mouthpiece.
clip
A cheaper solution in comparison with Capa. It should be an order of magnitude smaller (about $ 15), but does not require a visit to the doctor and fits everyone. Clip "enhances breathing channels by opening the nasal passages by high stimulation of sensory nerve endings in the nose."
Internet is teeming with negative reviews about the clips. Comments under YouTube-clips praising this salvation disabled. I think everything is clear with clips.
Gadgets
Where do without technical progress. Whether electronic gizmo to save you from snoring? Now we find out.
"Smart" bed
Yes, your night a sunbed can also have intelligence. Bed cost from five to ten thousand "green" explores and stores your activity during sleep is smart reports and gives useful advice.
But we do not know. Among other things, your partner in bed sheets can give a voice command, and - lo and behold! - neighborhood cushion is lifted, thereby clearing the nasal airway. As a result, a person ceases to mouth breathing, snoring and retreats.
I do not know people who have decided to stop snoring so expensive way.
Pillow
For $ 150 you can get the "smart" airbag. This creation of engineering gives you half an hour to sleep. Further included sensitive microphone, trapping snoring sounds. If any are found, the pillow is inflated, that either stops the unpleasant sounds (as mentioned above the bed), or forcing people to take a more comfortable sleeping position - turn over on a flank, eg.
It seems to me, experienced snorers are able to do their dirty work in any position and in any condition. Therefore, I was somewhat confused by "smart" beds and pillows on the part of the struggle with snoring.
Medicine
Mankind has learned to clone a living organism and transplanted organs. Whether it is able to overcome snoring?
Tablets
Apart from the tablets on the market of medicines you can meet and sprays, and aerosols, and drops, and rinses. Their action is directed to purification of nasal congestion, reducing pharyngeal mucosa inflammation or toning the muscles of the soft palate.
Really means a lot, some of them are sold over the counter without a prescription. But we must understand that the constant use of drugs lead to addiction and come down to no effect. Do not forget that your pocket will not be thrilled with the regular shopping.
Surgery
Adenoid growths and sagging of the soft palate are removed through surgery. Operations worked out and take a little time. Local anesthesia will get rid of the pain. Surgery in a public hospital with a scalpel not hit hard on your wallet, can not be said about the laser surgery of private clinics.
Adenoidectomy, in principle, it is necessary for the normal human breathing. Heavily overgrown adenoid tissue makes it necessary to breathe through the mouth, and in some cases even lead to oxygen starvation.
The meaning of the soft palate surgery reduces the formation of thermal burns or cuts on it. In the subsequent healing of tissue volume is somewhat shortened, which promises the disappearance of snoring.
Word of mouth can tell you that the fun begins after the procedure. Week you will be difficult to have anything other than yogurt or gruel. As a result, it may not happen any effect. "Suspenders" palate can be done several times, and did not get the desired results. That, in general, is what happened in the case of familiar to me.
intermediate conclusion
Easy ways to get rid of snoring does not happen. Do not sink to advertise various gizmos and do not get carried away with reception of tablets. Forget about the pillows and operations - they though may reduce snoring, but do not relieve you of its reasons. So you have to go to the "unacceptable" methods.
What to do
The causes of snoring cart and the small cart. Some of them are very specific, but let us focus attention on them.
Refer to the skilledWhich fully explores the state of your respiratory system. But without help an obese person should understand that accumulating fat tissue narrows the airways, preventing the normal flow of air. Slender athletes should pay attention to his battered nose. The curvature of the nose often is the cause of snoring.
Limit yourself. Sleeping pills, alcohol and coffee before bed relaxes the throat muscles and contribute to "roar." Overeating and fatty foods under pressure on the diaphragm and limit the air flow. Some medicines can be a catalyst for snoring - read them and on occasion find a replacement.
Get rid of allergens and irritants in your bedroom, that can contribute to snoring. Dust mites accumulate in bedding and can cause an allergic reaction. Allow pets to sleep with you? Animal dander also known irritant.
Often ventilate the room, change the pillowcases, pillows and so on. D. Close the door to the bedroom from cats and dogs.
Humidifies air in the bedroom. Dryness often causes snoring. If you do not have a humidifier, put a few cans of water in the room for the night. Do not forget to take a hot bath or shower before bed. Rinsing the nasal solution of sea salt increases the elasticity of the muscles of the palate and clears the respiratory tract.
Train the muscles of the palate. Stick out your tongue as far as possible, then relax. Repeat the exercise 10 times. Stick out your tongue over and try to touch the chin. And so 10 times. Repeat this exercise, but in an attempt to reach the nose. Again 10 times.
If you do not want to bother, make it a rule to sing in each comfortable surroundings. For example, during a morning shower or driving to work in the car. Singing well coached throat muscles. At the worst, instead of the usual bar visit karaoke.
Do not overdo it and sleep in sufficient quantity. Nevysypanie mows legs worse zaboristogo moonshine. You just fall into bed, and your muscles relax.
