What are the treatments available for snoring?
There are three lines of management of snoring. First is to reduce weight and tone up the muscles with diet and exercise. Second is surgical and involves correction of any constriction in the air passages. There are various procedures like Uvulo Palato Pharyngo Plasty[UPPP ] or Laup Laser Assisted Uvulopalatoplasty [LLAU]. The third option is to use a machine called continuous positive airway pressure [CPAP]. This keeps the airway open by applying slight air pressure inside the airway. Tell us about your work on a typical day? I leave home at about 9.30 am. After doing the ward rounds and seeing patients who are admitted I reach the out patient department at 10 am. From 10 am to 3 pm I see patients without a break. I have my lunch in the hospital at about 3 pm. The evening OP starts at 4 pm. This goes on till 6.30 pm. After a short evening ward rounds, I leave the hospital at about 7 pm. Share your memorable experience? My most memorable experience or happiest moment in my practice in
