Snoring is more than just a nighttime nuisance—it can be a sign of an underlying health issue. While occasional snoring is common, persistent or loud snoring may indicate obstructive sleep apnea or other airway obstructions. It can disrupt the sleep of both the individual and their partner, leading to fatigue, irritability, and even strained relationships. Snoring may also be associated with poor airflow due to nasal blockages, enlarged tonsils, or obesity, making it important to address the root cause rather than just the symptom.
Dr. Shweta Gogia offers thorough evaluation and personalized snoring treatment at her clinic in Model Town. As an experienced ENT specialist, she begins with a detailed assessment, including an examination of the nasal passages, throat, and lifestyle factors contributing to the condition. If needed, she may recommend a sleep study to rule out sleep apnea. Treatment plans vary from simple interventions like nasal sprays, weight management advice, or positional therapy to surgical procedures in cases of anatomical blockages. Dr. Gogia also educates patients about habits that may worsen snoring, such as alcohol use before bedtime or poor sleep posture. Her goal is not only to reduce snoring but to improve overall sleep quality and health.
