I need some advice on how to stop snoring.

One way to reduce snoring is to sleep on your side instead of your back. Sleeping on your back can cause the tongue and soft palate to relax and partially block your airway. Keeping your head elevated can also help, so try propping up your head with a few extra pillows. Avoiding alcohol, tobacco and sedatives before bedtime can help as well, as these substances can also contribute to snoring. You can also talk to your doctor about snoring aids or lifestyle changes that may help reduce your snoring.
