Depending on the cause, surgery will stop snoring. However, most have sleep apnea and for that you'll need a c-pap--which can work wonders. Go for a sleep study to determine what the best route is.

What is the origin of the rhyme it's raining it's pouring the old man is snoring?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

'It's raining, it's pouring

The old man is snoring

He went to bed and he bumped his head

And couldn't get up in the morning'

The rhyme is believed to have originated from Ireland during the commonwealth period (1649-1660) and the dictatorial conditions in the country at that time.

The poor weather conditions in line one reflect the genocide committed against Irish Catholics whilst the last three lines are most likely a wish that Oliver Cromwell, the Lord Protector of England, will die in his sleep.

Can dogs snore?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Yes, it is. Especially some breeds like the Pug or dogs with pushed in noses. Some other breeds may snore when very tired (and they dream too.) You may see their legs moving as if they are running; eyes flickering or tail wagging and perhaps a growl or two (similar to human sleeping behavior). If the snoring is constant, and every day, and deep, dogs should be checked by a trained veterinarian, as a precautionary measure. If the sound is bothersome or disturbs the canine's sleep, a veterinarian may be able to suggest treatment for it. It is ok, just a sign that the dog is relaxed.

Does Tourette syndrome affect sleep?

User Avatar

Asked by GaleEncyofNeuroDis

Mostly they sleep with their eyes closed.

Tourette's syndrome patients often have cause difficulty falling asleep. They may be restless during sleep, may talk during sleep or may sleepwalk or have nightmares.

People with Tourette's syndrome can also go a long while or a short time before having bouts of tics or noise-making. There is no rhyme or rule to this.

If you are wondering how do people with Tourette's sleep because they might tic a lot in their sleep and can't stand it themselves the answer is they can! Most of the time.

Have you ever had a cough from possibly a cold that made you cough all night? Eventually you go to sleep and your parents might say you coughed in your sleep. Not quite the same with Tourette's but close enough. See they don't do it in they're sleep. It stops as your body relaxes. But sometimes people have trouble falling asleep.

Does snoring affect the quality of sleep?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

If snoring is the only thing going on, it will probably have more negative consequences for others than for the snorer. But if someone who snores has a "related" sleep issue, like sleep apnea for instance, then the individual will not get a "proper night's sleep" and suffer physiologically and/or psychologically. A physician's consult may be in order, and for some others, a sleep study. It may be good to talk to a doctor about excessive snoring as there may be some underlying pathology that should be investigated. Snoring is not generally a major medical issue, but it can be, and usually for "other" reasons.

How do you sleep when someone is snoring?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Some people wear ear plugs, others sleep in a separate room, and there are devices that can help improve the snoring, like mouth splints (sort of like sports mouth guards) that hold the jaw in a better position for breathing.

However, if the snoring is especially loud, it could also be a sign of a breathing problem, and the snorer should maybe have an exam. The health care professional may suggest a sleep study to see if there may be an obstruction of tissue in the throat and soft palate causing the loud snoring.

If this is the case, it can often be helped by a device called CPAP (Continuous Positive Airway Pressure) which helps keep the airway wide open by a stream of air resulting in greatly reducing snoring. CPAP and sleep studies are also used in the diagnosis and treatment of a condition called sleep apnea, which is associated with snoring. Sleep apnea is a condition with periods during sleep when you are unable to take normal breaths and actually can stop breathing for short intervals. This can result in serious secondary conditions. Sometimes the first symptom of sleep apnea is complaints by bed partners about their mate's snoring.

Of course, some people also snore without having medical problems. In those cases, it can be positional. Usually it is worse when people sleep on their backs. To prevent that, some people prop themselves in bed on their sides with pillows. Alternately, some more creative solutions to prevent someone from turning to sleep on their back include pajamas with a pocket in the back that holds a rubber ball which is uncomfortable to lie on and people typically reposition to their side instead.
