Brief Answer:
Buy a Nasal Clip. Stop snoring forever.
Detailed Answer:
Dear XXXXXXX
1. snoring is not a disease. It is a condition.
2. please check if the cartilage that divides your nose into two nostrils is bent.
3. This is called deviated nasal septum.
4. There is a small quick operation for this. You need to see an ENT surgeon.
5. Instead of medicines, we have a device that clips (its made of transperant plastic)
around the nose, easy to wear and fit and sleep with, very comfortable. No more snoring issues.
6. Kindly do an MRI, if you want to be really thorough, to see if you have nasal polyps.
7. We have a very good success rate with these devices, so I recommend them for you, instead of operations and medicines with side effects. I can give you BNZ drugs, that will suppress your snoring, however they are addictive and harmful.
These drugs need a prescription from another doctor.
8. You can buy (very inexpensively, indeed) clip devices from a good pharmacy without any prescription.
Surely write back to me about your opinions on this line of treatment.
Regards,
Dr. Neel Kudchadkar
