Snoring is not just a sound…
For most people Snoring is part of their lives. But snoring is not just a sound. Snoring is a sign. It could mean that the breathing airway is partially or totally blocked.
Depending of the severity, that obstruction can become a very serious sleep disorder; called Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA).
For mild cases of Obstructive Sleep Apnea, Life changes could help, like:
• Lose Weight
• Exercise
• Quit Smoking
• Use Allergy medication
• Do not sleep on your back.
For more moderate to severe cases, the Positive Air Pressure (PAP) is the most recommended therapy.
More invasive techniques are available to treat the Obstructive Sleep Apnea, among them are procedure like surgical removal of tissues within the airway. Another way to treat is trying to move the jaw of the patient to the front, creating more room for the air to pass through.
