Brief Answer:
Need more information

Detailed Answer:
Hi Mr. XXXXXXX

I read your query and do feel that it will need more information for answering your question comprehensibly.

You wife snoring (kharate) can be due to multiple reasons. Snoring can be a manifestation of:
- obstructive sleep apnea
- being overweight
- old age
- alcohol intake
- smoking
- taking sedatives for sleep, etc.

So, in case of your wife, you need to provide more information to determine the cause of snoring. However, general rule to reduce snoring are exercising and losing weight, avoiding using any substance like alcohol, smoking, etc, light meals at dinner, sleeping on one side rather than on your back.

In case of obstructive sleep apnea, the exact cause of obstruction has to be determined like being overweight or any anatomical problems with air passage (will need an ENT consultation). If the cause could be removed, that is recommended (will need some device or even surgery depending on cause). In extreme cases associated with sleep apnea, positive airway pressure is usually recommended.

Hope I have answered your query. If you have any further questions I will be happy to help.

Best wishes,

Dr. Sunil Gupta
