The 411 on Sleep Apnea and Snoring<\/h2>\n

Obstructive sleep apnea is a common type of sleeping disorder that interrupts breathing while you\u2019re resting. This happens because your throat muscles become too relaxed and sink to the back of your throat. Some of the most common symptoms is a gasping, choking, or snoring sound while you sleep.<\/p>\n

Snoring happens when the throat muscles relax. Your tongue may fall to the back of your throat and your airways become narrower than they should be. Snoring occurs primarily when you inhale, but can also happen to a lesser degree when you exhale. The sleeper is partially aroused to resume breathing by the brain, which causes them to have poor sleep.<\/p>\n
