Let's take a look at
what is snoring : What is the reason for it? while we are getting
our sleep , if there is a disturbance to the air passage while
breathing, the respiratory structures, such as the uvula and the soft
palate, vibrates together causing the snoring noises to come about.
Your air passage could be obstructed due to a variety of reasons. A
few of the factors are due to thicker than normal throat tissues, your
airway being congested or even sleeping on your back.
There are many things that you can do to reduce snoring. The methods below will certainly help you overcome snoring.
1.
You can try to lose some excess weight - Snoring usually happens with
people who are overweight. The excess throat tissues that vibrate
when you sleep are are a result of being overweight. If you lose a few
pounds, the extra tissues might also grow thinner and diminish snoring.
2. Change sleeping positions - A People who sleep on their
back are at a higher chance of snoring. When sleeping in this
position, the tongue is moved at the back of the mouth and blocks the
airway passage. This is the cause of vibration in the throat and hence
snoring. Try sleeping on your side to push the tongue aside.
3.
A modification of your lifestyle is recommended - Consistent drinking
of alcohol, smoking or even inhaling second hand smoke could clog your
throats. If you experience lung and nasal congestion, snoring will
definitely take place.
The tips above are very effective but in a
rare case that they do not work for you it is possible to try other
treatment methods that have proven to work for other snorers. Some of
these remedies may include anti snoring chinstraps
which help adjust the jaw to prevent the tongue from blocking the
airway, surgery, medicine and a whole lot more. If snoring continues to
be a problem, consult a physician first and seek for their
professional advice.
