I am 27 yo male. physically fit. Before couple of months my body fat % was 19%. I have been snoring now for the past 2 years. My snores are loud and earth shattering. My personal life is disturbed af because of this. I read on the internet that getting operated would make it worse in the long run and there ll be no significant effect. Please suggest what should I do? I am not sure of the exact reason why I snore.
