Nasal Strips and Snoring (Part Two)

Previously, we began to discuss nasal strips and how they can address snoring. We went over snoring primarily due to obstructed airflow, and nasal strips work by holding the nose open to allow better airflow and breathing. In this second part, we will continue to discuss nasal strips and their effects on snoring and sleep.  

When it comes to side effects, nasal strips are relatively well tolerated and don’t have many. Since there are no drugs or chemicals involved, they are considered safe for most individuals. That said, it is essential to still follow the manufacturer's instructions for proper application and removal to best avoid skin irritation or discomfort.  

While nasal strips can be an effective short term solution for snoring, they don’t necessarily address the underlying causes of snoring. Chronic snoring can be a symptom of other issues such as sleep apnea, nasal congestions, or other obstructions. If you notice the problem consistently persists or you face other symptoms such as fatigue during the day, it's important to consult a healthcare professional to find a solution catered for you.
