Everyday snoring
Snoring is the sound of air pushing past relaxed tissue at the back of the throat. On its own it is very common.
A blocked nose, a drink before bed, sleeping on your back or a heavy cold can all set it off for a night or two. This kind comes and goes and usually says little about your sleep. It often bothers a partner more than it bothers you.
When it is worth a closer look
The snoring that deserves attention is loud, has gone on for a long time and comes with other clues. Breathing may seem to stop and start, with gasps or snorts, and you may feel tired in the day even after an early night.
That pattern can point to sleep apnoea, which needs a clinician to look at it. A gadget or a guess cannot settle it. Nothing here names your situation; it helps you decide whether to book a conversation. If in doubt, mention it at your next appointment.
Heavy snoring is the first item on the safety check at the top of the free 1-page Sleep Reset guide.
