Understanding Snoring: Contributing Factors

Anatomy of the Airway
Narrow airways, enlarged tonsils, or an elongated soft palate can obstruct airflow and lead to snoring.
Nasal Issues
Chronic nasal congestion or a deviated septum can hinder airflow, making snoring more likely.


Age and Muscle Tone
As people age, the throat muscles tend to weaken, increasing the likelihood of snoring.
