Snoring is a common sleep disorder that can affect all people at any age, although it occurs more frequently in men and people who are overweight. Snoring has a tendency to worsen with age. Forty-five percent of adults snore occasionally, while 25% are considered habitual snorers. Snoring is caused by a vibration in the soft tissues at the back of the throat, including the uvula and the soft palate. Snoring occurs while you are sleeping. The vibrations are caused by your breathing passages either being blocked or severely narrowed while you are breathing, when your muscles relax and your tongue falls back. The noise can vary from person to person and can sound like everything from a rumbling to a rasp to a jet engine taking off. Some people are completely unaware of the fact that they snore, and it is not until they are sharing a room with a partner or spouse (or sharing a hotel room on a business trip) that they discover how loudly they snore. Needless to say, if your snoring is loud enough to interrupt someone else's sleep, it's worth trying to resolve the problem. Snoring sometimes can be the only sign of a more serious problem. People who snore should be evaluated to be certain that other problems such as sleep apnea, other sleeping problems, or other sleep related breathing problems. For a long time, snoring was considered harmless; today we know that snoring can be a sign of upper respiratory resistance syndrome and obstructive sleep apnea, both of which can be extremely dangerous. Untreated, sleep apnea can lead to high blood pressure and other cardiovascular disease, headaches, impotence, memory problems, and weight gain. Children with chronic snoring should also be evaluated for apnea. Sleep apnea in children has been linked to growth problems, ADHD, poor school performance, learning difficulties, bedwetting, and high blood pressure. Most children who snore do NOT have apnea, but a sleep study is the only reliable way to tell for sure. Yet many who regularly snore don't realize that it could be bad for their health. The research linking hypertension, cardiac problems and loud snoring is relatively new. And though awareness of sleep apnea is growing, specialists say the condition is still vastly undertreated. Snoring is more common in men than in women; almost half of all men snore while only about one-third of women do. Regardless of your gender, however, snoring can be more than just a nuisance in your life and can lead to or be a symptom of several other health complications.
