Causes of Sleep Apnea
Sleep apnea is a condition in which the tongue and throat tissue of the one who suffers from it collapse into the throat and restrict the passage of air into and out of the lungs. As a result, the sufferer begins to snore incessantly as well as experience frequent sleep interruptions when the tongue is forcefully dislodged from the throat.
