Question
Why do children snore when they sleep? Is it related to sleep position?
Answer
Snoring while sleeping on the back in children should be attributed to a pillow that is too high. If snoring stops when they sleep on their side, it is not due to a medical condition. Many children snore while sleeping because their pillow is too high, so parents can try lowering the pillow for their child to see if it helps, which should be effective. Additionally, sleeping on the right side is generally better, as it is a position that can lead to deep sleep.
