Frequently Asked Questions

Why do I snore?
Snoring happens when air cannot move freely through the nose and throat during sleep, making the soft tissues vibrate. Common reasons include nasal blockage, enlarged tonsils, or relaxation of the throat muscles. Loud snoring can sometimes be a sign of obstructive sleep apnoea.
When should I see a doctor about snoring?
Consider an evaluation if your snoring is loud, if you wake up gasping or choking, if you feel tired despite a full night of sleep, or if someone notices you stop breathing during sleep.
How is snoring evaluated?
Dr. Ramya reviews your history, examines your nose and throat, and where needed uses nasal endoscopy or a sleep study to find the cause, so treatment can be matched to it.
Can snoring be treated?
In suitable cases, snoring can be reduced with lifestyle changes, treating nasal blockage, or a procedure. Your doctor will assess which options fit your situation.
