Suggest Treatment For Excessive Snoring

default
Posted on Tue, 14 Feb 2017
Question: Few weeks back, I had asked a question about my snoring problem. I did get a reply with some follow up questions, but I could not reply back due to some reasons. Looks like the question has been closed and I can't reply on the same question anymore. So I am answering these questions here. Could some one please help me further?

Q-any history of nasal polyps, deviated nasal septum, sinus infection?
A-No any such history, but I do have frequent cold problem.

Q- history of waking from sleep, inadequate freshness after full night sleep, chronic headaches?
A-I have experienced all of these problems several times.

Q- are you obese or overweight?

Detailed Answer:
Hello XXXXXXX
Good to hear from you again,

Thanks for posting your query in HealthcareMagic,

Yes, I had answered to your previous query but unfortunately the query only stays open for 3 days without any follow ups.

I have read through your answers and can understand your concern,

Since you have mentioned that you have a history of frequent cold problem, chances are that you may be having some anatomical variations. Once the cause for frequent colds is treated for, your consequent snoring issue should also be resolved.

I would suggest it best for you to consult with an ENT specialist for proper examination, so as to look for any nasal polyps or DNS.

Further decision on treatment modality will be decided as per examination outcomes.

Hope this will help

Please feel free to discuss further
