Is Snoring Dangerous?
Occasional mild snoring may not be dangerous. However, chronic snoring can indicate serious airway obstruction and sleep apnea.
Untreated snoring may lead to:
- Sleep apnea
- Daytime fatigue

Common Causes of Snoring in Dubai

Nasal blockage increases airway resistance.
Common causes include:

2. Soft Palate Obstruction
Soft palate vibration is a major cause of snoring.
Tissues vibrate as airflow passes through a restricted throat opening during sleep.
3. Tongue Base Obstruction
