I am 33 years old male. I snore a lot while sleeping. Wake up 3-4 times during sleep. Feel tired and sleepy during day time even after 8-9 hrs of sleeping. I take long time to feel active after waking up. I am unable to sleep on back. Feeling like I am unable to concentrate during work. Am I suffering from obstructive sleep apnea.

Obstructive sleep apnea occurs when the muscles that support the soft tissues in your throat, such as your tongue and soft palate, temporarily relax. But we have to look into the details of the problem. Let's have a detailed discussion to ensure proper treatment.

Snoring can be because of chronic nasal congestion deviated nasal septum, sleep deprivation (not getting enough sleep can lead to further throat relaxation), sleep position (snoring is typically most frequent and loudest when sleeping on the back as gravity's effect on the throat narrows the airway), obesity or your mouth anatomy (having a low, thick soft palate can narrow your airway), alcohol consumption. Treatment depends upon cause. Losing weight, avoiding alcohol close to bedtime, treating nasal congestion, avoiding sleep deprivation, avoiding sleeping on your back homeopathic treatment has very encouraging results.
