Snoring occurs because of vibrations of palate and pharyngeal muscles when air passes through the narrow airway during sleeping. Usually obesity is the very common cause for snoring. If you are overweight or obese then weight loss will significantly reduce snoring. If you are not obese then surgery may be an option
Next Steps
Consult nearby ENT specialist for confirmation of diagnosis and appropriate treatment if required
