Snoring happens when your throat gets a little sleepy and doesn’t open fully at night. Think of it like someone trying to push through a narrow door, the more squished they are, the louder the noise! When you sleep, some muscles in your throat relax and might even fall into a slumber of their own. That can cause a blockage or a vibration that makes a snoring sound.
Examples
- A man drinks wine before bed and snores loudly enough to wake his wife up.
- A child with large tonsils snores all through the night.
