Snoring is always a butt of joke for many but for other people it is a serious problem. It does not only concern with the family members but with the person who snores because sometimes it is a sign of a serious medical problem.

Snoring, like all other sounds, is caused by vibrations that cause particles in the air to form sound waves. For example, when we speak, our vocal cords vibrate to form our voice. When our stomach growls (borborygmus), our stomach and intestines vibrate as air and food move through them.

While we are asleep, turbulent airflow can cause the tissues of the nose and throat to vibrate and give rise to snoring. Essentially, snoring is a sound resulting from turbulent airflow that causes tissues to vibrate during sleep.

Snoring is commonly caused by the following reasons:

* Seasonal allergies can make some people's noses stuffy and cause them to snore.

* Blocked nasal passages or airways (due to a cold or sinus infection) can cause a rattling snore.

* A deviated septum, which is the tissue and cartilage that separates the two nostrils in your nose, may be crooked.

* Enlarged or swollen tonsils or adenoids may cause a person to snore.

* Drinking alcohol can relax the tongue and throat muscles too much, which partially blocks air movement as someone is breathing and can contribute to snoring noises.

* Being overweight can cause narrowing of the air passages.

Good news, snoring has a lot of solutions available in the market and even simple self-help remedies. This includes changing in lifestyle like correcting the sleeping posture, losing weight, avoiding alcoholic beverages and sedatives, do inhale steam before bedtime and using special pillows. You can also try throat sprays, positive airway pressure, palatal stiffening, mouthpiece devices, radio frequency tissue reduction, surgery and hypnosis.

If you fail with the simple solutions mention above, then consult a doctor there might be a suppressed medical condition that you are unaware of. Stop the noise and disturbance you make every night and have happy and healthy sleep.
