In fact, many people are surrounded by one or two snorers. Snoring is very common for men, but it is also common for women in real life. For women, if snoring can affect interpersonal communication, it is easy to have inferiority complex. Why do girls snore when they sleep?
Snoring women are generally under heavy psychological pressure in social interaction, especially when they sleep. They are very nervous, drowsy when they work and study in the daytime, which gives people a feeling of listlessness and loss of consciousness. Eventually, it leads to neurasthenia, neurosis, hypertension, coronary heart disease and other cardiovascular diseases, as well as low self-esteem, loneliness, impatience and unharmonious interpersonal relationship Personality disorder.
Why do women snore when they sleep?
Snoring is actually a symptom caused by airway obstruction. Although in terms of incidence, men are more than women, this does not mean that women do not snore or women snore rarely. On the contrary, women snore is also very common in life, especially in middle-aged women with high life pressure. According to research data, 40% of middle-aged men and 30% of middle-aged women snore regularly. This kind of middle-aged women on the one hand because of the special age, life pressure, long-term mental tension.
On the other hand, due to their busy work, many small diseases are out of treatment. Moreover, with the increase of their age, the accumulation of fat in their bodies is also increasing. In addition, bad living habits also increase the probability of women snoring. The air supply is not smooth due to unknown reasons, resulting in respiratory tract stenosis, brain and body oxygen deficiency, sleep quality and other problems.
Traditional Chinese medicine has always believed that most human patients are caused by Qi and blood, that is to say, Qi and blood disorder will lead to various diseases, and girls' sleeping and snoring are no exception. The research shows that the body's liver and kidney function is not good, the catabolic function is weak, the heart and lung qi and blood are not smooth and other visceral diseases lead to the body's heat toxin can not be discharged from the body in time, resulting in the rise of the heat toxin, which accumulates in the throat and tongue root and other soft tissues, and causes these soft tissues to swell, deform, relax, block the respiratory tract, thus causing the symptoms of snoring.
Therefore, to solve the problem of sleeping and snoring, we should start from the conditioning of liver, kidney, heart, lung and other important organs of the human body.
