There are many causes for snoring such as obesity, deviated nasal septum, chronic rhinosinusitis, allergic rhinitis, inferior turbinate hypertrophy, decreased tone of palate and pharyngeal muscles etc. Since you are not obese other causes need to be ruled out. Snoring can be treated by many surgical procedures
Next Steps
Consult nearby ENT specialist for confirmation of diagnosis and appropriate treatment if required
