Send him to the doctors and get him refered to an ENT consultant. He may need an operation but it is better to do it while he is younger. If it is a soft pallet problem it may become harder to operate in years to come. Is he excessively tired during the day? He may have sleep apnea. Its worth checking it out.

i have sinus problems and recently had a CT scan on my swede. Waiting to see consultant again in a few weeks to see if he is going to drill holes in my head to help me. ( very unpleasant but the sooner I have it done the sooner i will feel the benefits )
