Sleep apnea is a common issue where people snore loudly and have trouble breathing while asleep. It can lead to feeling tired during the day. Dr Raghavendra, a Consultant at the ENT department in Narayana Health City, Bommasandra, Bengaluru focuses on treating snoring and sleep apnea disorders surgically.

Sleep apnea happens when the airway gets blocked during sleep, causing loud snoring. People with this issue might feel extremely sleepy or tired during the day, have headaches in the morning, and not feel refreshed. At night, they may experience choking or stop breathing for short periods.

Other signs include needing several medications for high blood pressure, decreased interest in sexual activities, and migraines that don’t improve with typical treatments.

Diagnosing sleep apnea is important. It starts with questionnaires and includes an endoscopic check of the airway and X-rays to see the structure of the throat and nose.

Treatment might involve surgery or other medical methods, depending on what’s causing the blockage.

Understanding and treating sleep apnea is vital because it can lead to serious health issues like high blood pressure, diabetes, strokes, heart problems, and lung conditions. Remember, loud snoring is not a sign of good sleep but a warning of possible problems. Please get checked if you snore loudly or feel tired during the day.
