According to people who saw me sleeping, I don’t snore, but lately I was a bit tired after sleeping and felt that my throat is dry in the morning. I maybe snoring on my sleep. To confirm if I have obstruction in my throat, I went to my physician and let him check my breathing centers. After the observing my throat, he found no obstruction in it. He said if I wish to stop my snoring I must do the following:
Loose weight: Excessive weight brought about by a sedentary lifestyle, too many rich foods or by medically related situations such as thyroid problems, is probably the leading factor contributing to snoring. Bed partners almost invariably make the observation that the larger their snoring spouse becomes, the louder the snoring bellows, and the more often they hear snoring pauses followed by snorts, and a resumption of breathing (i.e., apneas — episodes of obstructed breathing). Conversely, in a large percentage of patients, weight loss down to an ideal weight has reversed the process.
Stop smoking: Smoking has numerous undesirable effects on the body. The obstructions to the airway that cigarette smoking causes: swelling of the mucous membrane in the nose, swelling of the tissue in the throat, and blockage of the small vessels in the lungs. Therefore, add snoring to the list of reasons why you should stop smoking.
