Does Snoring Cause Sleep Apnea?

Many people snore while sleeping and still others suffer from a sleep disorder called sleep apnea. Both can be annoying for their partner and both can lead to health issues if they are not diagnosed and dealt with as soon as possible.

Snoring is usually caused by a blockage in the air passages or other congestion, but it can also be the result of having tonsils or adenoids that have become enlarged. If these enlarged organs aren’t treated the condition can develop into sleep apnea.

Sleeping on your back can also contribute to snoring as your tongue often falls backward thereby increasing the chances of blocking your air passages. Sometimes just turning on one’s side will alleviate the problem or minimize it but it can be annoying for those who are subjected to it. Snoring can range from very gentle shallow breaths that are not very loud to very noisy and disruptive sounds that will likely keep your partner awake and others in the household.

Sleep apnea is a medical condition that should be addressed as soon as it has been identified. Doctors might recommend treatments that can alleviate it before it gets worse because obstructive sleep apnea can be a serious problem - as the person often stops breathing for a few seconds and this frequently happens many times during a night.

People who suffer from either snoring or sleep apnea often are overly tired during the day because they are awakened often during the night – along with others! Some people may not even be aware that they have a problem with either snoring or sleep apnea if they don’t wake up during the night. Maintaining a healthy lifestyle that includes a good diet and following an exercise routine will help to alleviate sleep disorders and reduce the risk of heart disease as well.

Perhaps VitalSleep's Stop Snoring Mouthpiece can help you stop snoring.
