If you snore and foam at the mouth, what should you do if it's very serious?

Patient's question:

What should I do if snoring with foam in the mouth is very serious while sleeping? It never happened before! It has been going on for three or four years!

Doctor's answer:

Snoring is an inflammation. If it is severe and accompanied by pauses in breathing, it is necessary to clearly determine whether it can be diagnosed as sleep apnea-hypopnea syndrome. Conduct a deep sleep breathing screening test to see if it meets the diagnostic criteria, while also paying attention to whether there are respiratory obstruction symptoms caused by issues such as adenoid hypertrophy. For patients who spit foam, they can take symptomatic medication while also using dietary therapy as a supplementary treatment in daily life. It is essential to avoid being overly hungry or full in daily diet, and never overeat.
