Try to avoid lying on your back and try to sleep on your sides. You can raise your head by sleeping on thick pillow or multiple pillows; this can help in preventing snore. Many people have found a great relief from simply putting something under their chin as they sleep; either their hand, or a pillow, or even a rolled up sock.
