What is snoring?
It is simply the vibration of the respiratory structures and the sound produced when there is obstructed air movement in a person's breathing during sleep. A natural reaction of the body when sleeping is that the muscles relax and this includes the muscles that hold the airway open when a person is awake. If the airway is too narrowed it can disrupt the normal suction of breathing that then leads to the vibrations and sounds that we know as snoring.
What are the causes of snoring?
Here are some of the conditions or factors that can cause snoring:
Mouth Anatomy - the following conditions in the mouth can narrow the airway and can lead to snoring:
Low, thick soft palate
Extra tissue in the back of the throat (which is usually true for overweight, obese and pregnant women)
Elongated uvula (i.e. triangular piece of tissue hanging from the soft palate)
Drinking alcohol - when a person consumes too much alcohol before bedtime, the result is over relaxed throat muscles which decreases the natural defenses against airway obstruction.
Chronic nasal congestion
Sleep deprivation - not getting enough sleep can lead to further throat relaxation
Position during sleep - sleeping on your back typically produces the most frequent and loud snoring. This is due to the gravity effect on the throat that results in narrowing of the airway.
Obstructive sleep apnea - a serious condition that causes your throat tissues to partially or completely block your airway and prevent you from breathing.
What are the effects of snoring?
- Poor quality of sleep
- Weight gain
- Strained relationships (especially with your partner)
- Headaches
