Snoring & Other Sleep Problems Treatment

Snoring can indicate sleep apnea or other sleep-related breathing disorders, impacting overall health and quality of life.

Evaluation:

• Sleep Studies: Polysomnography helps in understanding sleep patterns and diagnosing obstructive sleep apnea (OSA).
• PFT (Spirometry): Assesses lung function in relation to breathing patterns during sleep.

Treatment:

• CPAP (Continuous Positive Airway Pressure): A device that helps keep airways open during sleep.
• Lifestyle Changes: Weight loss, avoiding alcohol, and sleeping on the side can reduce snoring.
• Surgical Options: For severe cases of obstructive sleep apnea.
