People are trying to deal with snoring since time immemorial.
This is understandable: after all, snoring prevents full sleep and rest millions of people every night.
Moreover, snoring is also a serious problem for those who are near.
Fortunately, modern science offers several ways to "fix" the airways and stop snoring.
Where does sore "live"? It's not so easy to correctly identify where it starts snoring.
Sometimes snoring "is" in nose, in other cases the fault tongue and throat, in the third - the vocal cords.
In some cases, the determined search for the source does not facilitate, and make it difficult to fight with snoring.
REASONS During sleep, a person involuntarily relaxes soft palate and uvula.
Snoring is caused by vibration of the soft tissues of the larynx and pharynx, due to the peculiarities of the anatomical structure of man.
The back of the neck and head consists of a very soft tissue and passes.
During sleep, the soft tissues spontaneously relax.
Their vibration due to the irregular flow of air causes snoring.
Similarly, to determine the cause for which disrupted air flow, as difficult as to establish the exact location of snoring vibration - only signs of normal breathing during sleep, and not its cause.
Obstruction of nasal breathing, distortion of nasal septum - the most common and most easily treatable causes of snoring.
The tongue in the throat, inflamed adenoid tissue - the most difficult to treat the causes.
It is also possible that the reason - vibration in the tonsil, tongue or vocal cords.
Snoring may occur due to the use of certain substances.
For example, new drugs (especially sedatives), alcohol, smoking can cause snoring.
AND WHAT TO DO NOW? Most medications (sprays or drops for the nose) are designed for a specific area of the respiratory tract.
They affect the superficial tissues, but does not solve the problems with the air flow.
The only solution is to free the passages so that air can move freely through the nose to the lungs, without facing towards the vibrating soft tissues.
Drops and sprays can be effective, they moisturize and envelop the mucous in the nose and throat tissues and reduce the tendency to vibration.
Is there still some money? Yes.
Here are a few simple things.
1.
Posture The first thing you try to make everyone who wants to solve snoring problem - change the position of the body while sleeping.
However, after a pause, people unknowingly return to a familiar and comfortable for him pose.
If you can stop snoring, changing his position, then we need some locking mechanism, a device that will keep you in the new position and will not return to the narrative.
2.
Pillow Pay attention to your pillow.
On a flat pillow or, conversely, too lavish, man tries to get comfortable, sometimes taking the position, which prevents the free movement of air.
So it makes sense to take care of such a pillow on which your head and neck will be in a position that ensures free access of air.
3.
Chin If the flow of air from the outside is not enough, people often compensate for this by mouth breathing.
Jaw dream droops and starts breathing through his mouth.
This is bad for two reasons.
First, the nose, because of its devices, is a much more successful filter than the mouth, and stop more pollution in air, on the way to your lungs.
Secondly, with your mouth open its easier to snore.
How dangerous snoring is? Snoring itself is not dangerous.
But first, it is a symptom of certain diseases.
For example, snoring can be a symptom of the throat collapse during sleep.
This is called sleep apnea (from the Greek word - wind) - stop breathing.
Secondly, snoring can cause various pathologies.
For example, because of snoring can occur daytime sleepiness.
Snoring awakes brain, thereby violated the structure of sleep.
Man this awakening does not remember and do not know about them.
But his body did not rest during sleep.
The brain is trying to load the body into sleep in the middle of the day to compensate for the loss of the night.
Snoring can badly affect the close relationship.
