Climb down at night without snoring. Why do you snore when you lie down?

What are the causes of snoring?

1, airway stenosis: Many patients snore because of airway stenosis, such as congenital airway dysplasia, rhinitis, sinusitis, nasal polyps, adenoid hypertrophy, etc. These reasons will cause the airway of the nose and throat to be narrow, leading to poor airflow and snoring at night.

2, obesity: "The head is big and the neck is thick, not the boss or the cook", obesity is one of the reasons for snoring. When sleeping at night, the nerve excitability of the human body is reduced, the muscles are relaxed, and the neck of obese patients often deposits too much fat. In this case, the pharynx is easily blocked, resulting in poor airflow, which makes it difficult for snorers to fall asleep at night.

3, sleeping position: the pillow is too high or too low, sleeping on your back will affect the patency of the throat airway, leading to snoring.

4. After drinking: When people are drunk after drinking, the muscles in the throat are more relaxed, which will greatly increase the chance of snoring, so some people usually have symptoms of snoring after drinking.

5, excessive fatigue: excessive fatigue is the influencing factor of snoring at night. Some people don't snore at ordinary times, but they snore easily after working overtime.

Some suggestions for improvement

Side Sleeping: Snoring people will sleep on their backs, and their tongues and soft palates will droop more easily, which will block the airway and cause snoring, while side sleeping can improve tongue drooping.

Go to bed early and avoid staying up late to work overtime: after working late, sleep will deepen, which will make the pharyngeal muscles more relaxed and aggravate the symptoms of airway obstruction.

Lose weight: after losing weight, the reduction of neck fat will make it more open, and other benefits of losing weight need not be said. In short, act quickly.

Treatment of nasal diseases: if it is due to the obstruction of some nasopharyngeal hypertrophy diseases, it can be improved after nasal polyps or hypertrophic tonsils are removed.
