First of all, I wish you all the best,
Snoring. What causes it? How to stop it?
Asked by: 25 Years Old, 94 Kg, 190cm Male
Snoring usually occurs when your airway narrows, causing vibrations as you breathe. Here are some possible causes, depending on your age, gender, and body size:
Excess weight - Being overweight often causes extra tissue to accumulate around the neck, which can narrow the airway.
Age and gender - Men and aging people tend to snore more often. Your age and gender may be related to your symptoms.
Sleeping Position - Sleeping on your back can cause your tongue and soft palate to fall back into your airway, blocking airflow.
What's more, alcohol consumption, smoking, and certain medications can make snoring worse.
Here are a few ways to stop snoring:
Lose Weight - You can reduce the pressure in your airway by reducing your weight to a healthy level.
Quitting alcohol and smoking - These substances can increase snoring, especially if consumed before going to bed.
Try a different sleeping position. Try sleeping on your side instead of your back to reduce snoring.
Anti-snoring devices - Medical devices such as mouth guards and CPAP machines can help treat snoring.
In conclusion, I think your age, gender, and body size may have increased your tendency to snore. I would recommend that you see an ENT doctor for this complaint.
