Snoring is a common problem, caused by a blockage of the nasal passages during sleep. Snoring can be a sign of a serious problem called sleep apnea, where you stop breathing for 10 seconds or more during sleep. There are two types of doctors who treat snoring problems: sleep medicine doctors and otolaryngologists (ear, nose and throat doctors). (AndreyPopov/iStock/Getty Images)
Surgery is also available as a method of correcting social snoring. Some procedures, such as uvulopalatopharyngoplasty, attempt to widen the airway by removing tissues in the back of the throat, including the uvula and pharynx. These surgeries are quite invasive, however, and there are risks of adverse side effects.
