Why do people snore?

Why do people snore? Is there a special reason for it?

Answer #1

ummm…not really jameslouie

Vibrations of soft tissues located at the back of our throats cause snoring

The palate, uvula and tonsils are the tissue structures that flap against each other when someone has too much tissue at the back of their mouth or when an obstruction is blocking the air passageway to the back of the throat.

People with snoring problems tend to have one of the following conditions:

* Poor muscle tone in the tongue and throat
* Excessive bulkiness of throat tissue
* Long soft palate and/or uvula tissue in the back of the mouth
* Obstructed nasal airways 

Snoring can be a serious medical problem because it disturbs sleeping patterns and deprives the snorer of necessary rest.
