Brief Answer:
Seems Obstructive Sleep Apnea

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

It seems that your husband is having obstructive sleep apnea. It is due to obstruction of the upper airway due to any abnormality in the upper airway like short neck, thick tongue, enlarged tonsils,deviated nasal septum, increased thickness of the structures of the neck. So it is generally multilevel problem for which he is having snoring. Try to reduce weight and make it upto 55-60 kg. Do moderate exercise. Weight reduction is the most important part. Take saline spray solspre thrice daily which will reduce nose congestion and will decrease snoring. Take steam inhalation. Avoid spicy food, alcohol.

Review if you have any queries.
Thanks.
