Question by Topics To tweet: Do breath right nasal strips really work for snoring?
I have a brother who’s snoring can be heard through just about every room of the house. We are in college now and his neighbor told me about the horrible snoring they have to endure from the opposite side of the wall. If you’ve tried it or know somebody that said it works please answer.

Answer by Jessica My dad uses them and they really worked for him. I assume you mean those things that look like bandages you put on top of your nose? These worked strangely
Question by eqkens: Will Nasal Strips/ Spray work if person is snoring through their mouth?
I searched yahoo answers and found that Nasal Strips/Spray works well for those who snore but will it help those who snore through their mouth? My brother who sleeps next to my bed breaths though his mouth only so how can nasal strips/sprays help him if hes not breathing though his nose?
Also he refuses to sleep on his side because hes caution of getting more severe acne due to the pillow getting oily from his hair. He sleeps only on his back.
To add to all this, I have somewhat of an insomnia problem. I sometimes lie on my bed for hours and hours just thinking and thinking. Plus with his snoring, it makes me think even more…..
Please do help

Answer by frodobaggins115 They can help. Think about it, why does a person snore? Because he cannot breathe through his nose very well. So the purpose of nasal strips/spray is to open the nasal passages so one can breathe better. This may eliminate the snoring. If the problem persists, you can always check with your doctor about other possible treatments. Same thing with the insomnia. Your doctor should be able to suggest something for that too.
Serveral OTC devices reviewed. Somnomed expensive (00 insurance 0 pocket), not so easy to get used to, I only tolerate when tired and relaxed and not when otherwise might have difficulty getting to sleep. Been wearing britishsnoring.uk’s snore-no-more for sports and sleep prior to deviated septum repair surgery (post-op depicted herein as well). Also for exercise American Dental Union’s ebay-sold (not sold on tv as yet) device where you make your own imprint and send them back for device forming. Aveotsd is apparently for the “edentials”? (untoothed) (welcome someone to buy my old one). My TMJ+ doc here says soft things are not suited for bruxism and cause TMJ. Don’t know if cosmetic orthodontics is relevent. Can’t stay what’s “best” for bruxism, apnea (oh yeah, may pursue pillar treatment and may follow up on CPAP if next sleep test does not show sufficient progress on apnea). Hope display of variety of available devices is helpful to the u2bmunity. Good luck.
