Stop Snoring Remedies

Question by Sanjeev S: should i go for tonsil surgery?
i’m into hard-core snoring, especially when i’m tired or have cold. its been disturbing my family’s sleep for pretty long. i went to see the ENT doctor, who after diagnosing me suggested that my tonsil is the one of the main obstructions in my sleep. at that time my heart and lungs have to work all the more, so that i get proper oxygen. i’m 37 now and the doctor said that because of heart and lungs overworking, i may land up with my first-heart-attack by 50. thus i should have my tonsil removed which stop the obstruction in the intake of my oxygen and also will put an end to the tonsilitis which i frequently get during winters. i’m just not sure, as whether a tonsil removal, is the soln., to my snoring and its surgery would not result in any other unseen problems.

Question by Harry C: Should I get a tonsillectomy? How to cure snoring problem?
I have tonsillitis since like March or something? At the beginning it was bothering me and it was large so I went to the doctor and they gave my antibiotics. After like a week with taking the antibiotics the pain stopped by my tonsils were still large. Is this supposed to happen? The pain stopped but tonsilliths sometimes appear on my tonsils and I have no problem removing them. Since the inflammation I have been snoring. Snoring really loud. I want that to stop. Is it a nose problem or is it happening because of my tonsils? I don’t want to have a tonsillectomy because I’m scared. What should I do?

you should have your tonsils out.
if they are big they are what is causing your snoring.
and tonsil stones can become quite annoying. (i know i suffered for 9 years with them)
you’ll be glad you got rid of your tonsils.

Question by Kiki: What should I do if I’ve had Tonsillitis for a month now?
I’ve had Tonsillitis for about a month now. I think it started during a flu I had the week of July fourth where I had a high fever of 101.4 degrees, chills, and my body felt as if it were on fire most of the first night. My flu went away after a few days of taking DayQuil and NyQuil, but I still had this sore throat. So, I went to the doctor and he prescribed me Moxatag since he said that I had tonsillitis. I also took two tests for mono and strep, but they came out negative. Then, after going through Moxatag, I went to the doctor again because my tonsils didn’t change and I think the medicine just kept them from getting worse yet they were still the same size. He prescribed me another anti-biotic that has tylenol in it and took another mono test in which they took more blood from me so they could see if I were developing mono. I still haven’t got the test back.

My tonsils are to the point where they are touching my uvula and they don’t have white patches, but I do have hot sweats and chills every now and then with headaches in the mornings and before I go to bed as well as not being able to sleep well at all because I can barely breathe. My voice is a “potato” like and I’m snoring now. I think I may have sleep apnea which it was really bad during the first week of having Tonsillitis. Now, I’m having restless sleep and it’s causing me to be even more tired and feeling ill. I’ve been taking medicine as well as drinking hot tea and gargaling salt water. My tonsils still haven’t changed. They are still big to the point where my uvula is sliding against them.

What should I do? And I’ve been trying to look up to see what kind of Tonsillitis I have, but can’t really seem to find an answer since my symptoms are not really severe as most others.

In many people a flu is accompanied with throat infection. By gargling salt water just once a day would give you only a temporary relief. You should gargle with warm salt water at least thrice a day. Each time you feel thirsty, you should drink only hot or warm liquids. Its not just having a cup of hot tea once or twice a day. Placing hot water bags on your chest would relieve chest congestion. Apply a cold balm or vicks on your chest, back, throat and nose. Hope these tips helps.

Question by lovelyladee: Please help me decide if I should put my cat to sleep.?
My cat is pretty old. I’ve had her for 23 years now but she got really sick, really fast. Here’s a list of her problems:

*Severe Kidney Disease
*Hyperthyroidism which causes her to eat/drink constantly but still lose weight. She only weighs 4.5 pounds now. I can feel her bones.
*There’s something pushing her eye out of socket. The vet believes this to be a tumor
*Urinary tract infection
*Abcess tooth/rotten teeth
*She tries not to put too much weight on her back right leg but she can still walk and jump
*When she breathes, she sounds like she’s snoring
*She is losing her hearing

I love my cat so much and I just cry at the thought of not having her with me anymore but I know I have to do what’s best for her. The vet says that she’s too old for any kind of treatment and that I should just try to keep her happy and comfortable but they didn’t tell me to put her down. What should I do?

If she is in pain, I will put her down. I don’t want her to suffer because I don’t want to let her go. That would be selfish of me and this is about her, not me.

As for quality of life, she sleeps a lot and just wants to eat when she’s not sleeping. She doesn’t play much anymore. She just hangs out and climbs in our laps when she’s ready for snuggles.

I know that no one can tell me what to do. I was hoping to hear what you would do if you were in my position. Thank you so much for your answers.

It is a personal decision…a very HARD personal decision.

I would put her down if she was mine.She’s probably in pain all over.

Sorry.
