Is snoring a cause for concern?
I am Male 35 yrs of age, lately i have noticed i have started to snore a lot as told by my wife, earlier i used to snore but was mild now it is vigorous. I am aware that it is very annoying to spouse besides this what i want to know how bad it is health wise, i recall a pro gramme on tv that said it could possibly related to some upcoming heart problem. So can anyone throw some light on this?
there has been no change in my life style in recent past and i take complete sleep during night and i have no problems pertaining to sleep.
Snoring can be the sign of sleep apnea. It is not the snore but the pause that is where you stop breathing. Generally you almost snort as you start breathing again. The best thing to do is have a sleep study.
Problems with untreated SA is
heart failure
high blood pressure
stroke
depression
traffic accidents
never feeling refressed
death
I know a 32 year old with a family that died in his sleep from sleep apnea.
