I had a cold a month ago - quite seriously. Since then, my wife has been complaining that I snore - I haven't done that before. Should I wait for the body to fully recover after the illness (because it may go away on its own) or try to find the cause of snoring now?
If the Lord has never snored before, it may be because mucus is still there and the airflow is blocked. It may also be that there is some slight deviation of the nasal septum and if this is combined with the residual discharge factor, snoring occurs. It is worth consulting a doctor, because if it is related to the retention of discharge, it must be diluted with medication so that it can evacuate, you also need to check if there is anything going on in the paranasal sinuses.
