How to Control Snoring
Undergoing an uvulopalatoplasty carries several risks for complications. The main risk is excessive bleeding. Infection and changes in speech are rare, but can occur in the first few days of recovery. In some cases, snoring will continue to occur but in a more moderate amount than previously. If continued snoring continues to be a problem, a second uvulopalatoplasty may be necessary to eliminate the disorder, says the Surgery Encyclopedia.
