Why do I snore


If you’re one of the millions of people with a snoring problem, you may be wondering what exactly makes you snore. Snoring is a problem that can be caused by a host of factors, and there are many questions you need to ask yourself to help determine the cause, and possible solution to your issue.

Do you only snore when you drink alcohol?

For those who drink alcohol often, you should try to find out if the problem affects you on a sober night. Alcohol, being a depressant drug, can be the cause of a sneezing problem due to the way that it relaxes the muscles in your body. More so than regular sleeping, alcohol can cause the muscles in your throat to relax to a point where there is an airway restriction. If you only snore when drinking, your best bet for fixing the problem is to avoid drinking altogether, or to at least have your last drink more than 4 hours before you go to sleep.

Do you only snore when you lie on your back?

A large proportion of snorers only face the problem when they are lying on their back in bed. The simple solution to this problem would be to train your body towards sleeping on your side. While there are many products for sale to help this issue, they are usually variations on a tried and true method. The basic, simple, and cost effective solution would be to put a tennis ball in a sock and pin it to the back of your pajama pants. The ball will make it uncomfortable for you to sleep on your back, causing you to naturally favor sleeping on your side.

Do you have a weight problem?

Along with the other side effects of obesity, snoring can be caused due to excess weight. This is due to the fact that fat deposits begin to occur in the neck and throat area, which can get big enough to put a strain on the airway, causing restricted breathing that results in snoring. If this is the reason you are snoring, weight loss is the main way to help.

Do you use sleeping pills or anti-histamines?

If you find yourself using these products before bedtime, similar effects to those caused by alcohol can result in a snoring problem. The relaxation of throat muscles is common when taking these drugs, just as they are with alcohol.

Do you have allergies?

Allergies can often result in nasal congestion, which can make it hard for your body to get the oxygen it needs. Unfortunately, since antihistamines also cause issues, one of the best remedies for this problem is to just take a decongestant as opposed to an antihistamine.

While these are a good number of the reasons you may snore, there are also others. If you can’t seem to pin down why exactly you may be having a snoring issue, it may be helpful to speak to a health care professional about the problem. Snoring can be a serious problem, costing you valuable sleep and possibly leading to a serious condition known as sleep apnea.
