Snoring is basically not an illness, however, it is a symptom of something more problematic. When people fall asleep, the muscles in their bodies relax. At times, they would relax so much that they block their nasal airways, hence causing vibrations. The vibrations of these muscles cause them to produce sounds and that is what we call snoring. In other cases, the snoring may also be caused by the mouth’s anatomy while it can also be caused by sleep apnea, nasal problems such as chronic congestion and even alcohol.
