Consider having a sleep study done. Many people suffer from obstructive sleep apnea, and snoring is an indication of this disorder. No, you don't have to be overweight to suffer from obstructive sleep apnea.

The simplest thing to do is to sleep on your side or stomach. When we sleep, the dilator muscles of the pharynx relax, and this can cause obstruction with snoring. Sleeping on the side allows the tongue to fall forward, relieving the obstruction.
If it is severe, you may have sleep apnea issues and need evaluation by a professional.

There really is'nt anything you can do. Breath Right is a product they have out . It is a spray you are suppose to spray back in your throat before you go to sleep at night.I've never tried it but they say it works pretty good. Maybe you can try that. Good Luck!!

Use "Breathe Right strips" and now theres a new throat spray to open the airway. Worth a try.
