What is snoring?

What causes snoring? Snoring should have many reasons. As far as I know, besides sleeping posture, tonsil problems and rhinitis problems, there may also be cervical vertebra problems and internal brain problems. Because the human body goes to sleep, the muscles begin to relax, which makes the airway collapse and block. When the human body breathes, the airflow will produce vortex and vibration when passing through the narrow airway, which will lead to snoring.

Narrow airway leads to poor airflow because it can lead to snoring during sleep. The causes of airway stenosis are congenital dysplasia, rhinitis and nasal polyps. And because of organ degeneration, there are more men than women. The muscles that enter the throat through the nostrils are relaxed, and there will be a noise when breathing gas impacts. When people sleep, their breathing slows down, but the breathing gas increases, and the influence of gas is also great.

In general, fat people snore more than thin people, and some people snore after overwork. If you are fat, try to lose weight. Exercise is not only to lose weight, but also to promote metabolism. If snoring is serious, it is recommended to go to the hospital for examination. The airway of normal people is very unobstructed. If the air passes through the spacious airway, there will be no sound. If the airway narrows anywhere, snoring will occur when the sound passes through any narrow place. This is what we call snoring.

Because the airflow passes through the narrow airway, the resistance increases, which increases the work of the respiratory muscles. At night, palpitation and shortness of breath often occur suddenly, and in severe cases, the upper airway is completely blocked, resulting in apnea and hypoxemia. Repeated occurrence of hypoxemia will cause a series of physiological changes. It is hypertension that increases the work of respiratory muscles because the airflow passes through the narrow airway, which leads to frequent palpitation and shortness of breath at night and sudden awakening. In severe cases, the upper airway is completely blocked and apnea occurs.
