Sleep Apnea Management

Sleep apnea is a condition where breathing repeatedly stops and starts during sleep, leading to poor quality rest. Management typically involves lifestyle changes like losing weight, avoiding alcohol, and sleeping on your side. Medical devices such as Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP) machines may be prescribed to keep airways open during sleep. In some cases, surgery might be considered to remove tissue blocking the airway. Regular check-ups with a healthcare professional are essential to monitor and adjust treatment to ensure effective management of the condition.
