Why do we actually snore?
Snoring occurs when the airway becomes partially blocked during sleep. This can have several causes:
- Incorrect sleeping position – Sleeping on your back can cause the tongue and soft tissues to slide back, narrowing the airway.
- Overweight – Extra fatty tissue around the throat can compress the airways, making breathing difficult and leading to snoring. Losing weight can have a positive effect.
- Stuffy nose due to allergies or a cold A blocked nose forces someone to breathe through the mouth, which can cause snoring. Using a nasal spray or humidifier can provide relief.
- Smoking Cigarette smoke irritates and swells the airways, which can worsen snoring. Quitting smoking can improve breathing.
- Old age As we age, the muscles in our throat relax, which can cause snoring. Specific exercises for the throat muscles can help.
- Anatomical factors Some people naturally have an enlarged uvula or tonsils that block the airway. In extreme cases, medical intervention may be necessary.
