Snoring in children is often caused by enlarged tonsils or adenoids, allergies, or nasal blockage. While occasional snoring is common, regular loud snoring may indicate sleep-disordered breathing or obstructive sleep apnoea.

​

Treatment may include:

• Tonsil and adenoid removal if they are blocking the airway

• Treating allergies with medication

• Nasal sprays to reduce congestion

• Sleep study if sleep apnoea is suspected
