Hi, thank you for asking Healthcare Magic. I have gone through your query and understood your concerns. The first condition is called sleep apnea and is caused by the collapse of the muscle of the throat, obstructing air flow during sleeping. Some risk factors for this condition include: overweight, male gender, hereditary, smoking and age greater than 65 years. Management consists of: Lifestyle changes (quitting smoking, avoiding alcohol, caffeine, sedatives and sleeping pills, maintaining regular sleeping hours, sleeping on your side, elevating the head of your bed, opening nasal passages with nasal dilators, saline spray or breathing strips) Medical (treating underlying disease, using supplemental oxygen while your sleep or breathing devices) or Surgery I would suggest you first of all try life style changes and see if it can work. I hope that answers your query. If you have more questions or any follow up query do not hesitate to write to us. I wish you well
