How to Cure Snoring Instantly

Snoring is a physical condition that can result from weak or excessive skin in the throat that vibrates as air passes from the nose. How your tongue is positioned, among other causes, can be another reason for snoring. And although the exact cause of snoring is as wide and varied as the people who suffer from it, there are a few simple ways to help momentarily cure the problem instantly.

Instructions

• 1

  Change your sleeping position to improve the airflow through your throat. For example, if you are lying flat on your back, switch to either of your sides.

• 2

  Elevate or lower your head by four inches. If you are using a pillow, removing the pillow will lower your head significantly, and adding a pillow can raise it effectively.

• 3

  Blow your nose with a tissue to clear out the nasal passages. Use a saline nasal spray to alleviate heavy congestion.

• 4

  Place a humidifier directly in your path to add moisture to the air you're breathing in. The moist air will prevent your throat and nose from becoming irritated.

• 5

  Take a fast-acting antihistamine or allergy medication. Symptoms caused by allergies can result in snoring.

• 6

  Wear a mouth guard if you wake up from snoring to keep your mouth held in the proper sleeping position.
