Dear lybrate-user
there could be many causes. It could be a problem related to difestion or related to snoring at night, to name a few. It is difficult to say without getting more information. Please consult a physician who will be able to ask you relevant questions to solve your problem. Meanwhile make sure you eat well, do not eat a lot of spicy food and ask someone to check if you snore too much.
All the best.
