Detailed Answer:
Dear
Thanks for contacting Ayurveda with your health concern and before guiding you through the relevant aspects of treatment do let me know that apart from snoring has she complained or you observed any of the below mentioned symptoms:

i. frequent respiratory infection with breathing problem?
ii. any hearing problem?
iii. sore throat-stuffy nose-mouth breathing?
iv. Any h/o allergy?

PS. If attacks are frequent, if lymph nodes are persistently enlarged,or a hidden septic focus is suspected (child having low grade fever,not gaining weight or loss of appetite), and there is persistent dry cough (where no other cause is found) with mouth breathing then one may safely go with Adenoidectomy after consulting E.N.T. Surgeon

1. In Ayurveda I usually manage my patient on the line of "KANTHA SHALUK" and manage them medically as follow:

Avoid: spices, milk products,sour taste,curd, butter milk,cold drinks and fried items.
. Avoid head bath
. Maintain hydration: drink plenty of lukewarm fluids/beverages (water/soups/ginger tea) and take easy to swallow and digestible diet.
. Gargling with XXXXXXX (potash alum) yields better result than plain lukewarm water.
. Agastya rasayan: 1 tablespoon with honey twice daily for 6 months
. Khadiradivati (medicated lozenges):SOS

The Home made remedy which has got wonderful results in my patient is provided

. Glass of warm water with 4 tablespoon honey plus 1/4 common salt plus fresh lime squeezed in it: drink twice daily

PS. make sure after this to apply hot fomentation in front of neck.
