Tinnitus 911 ulmonologist that's the lung doctor those guys also
Tinnitus
911 you
gain weight any other place you gain weight in these areas also so when you're
when you lose weight you lose in those areas and again if you remember levels
the potential levels of obstruction you're looking primarily at um bass soft
palate in those lateral walls so losing weight in those areas will usually help
with the obstructive sleep apnea next question how many out how many hours does
an overnight sleep study last sleep study typically is uh you should typically
spend the night in order for them to get real good data you need to be asleep
for at least a five hour period usually you'll come in the evening and you'll
spend the night and you'll leave usually early that morning next question
notice these symptoms and my husband when he's sleeping to get him checked out
should we go to our family doctor can we go straight to a specialist if so
which type of doctor should that be there are two there are two primary people
that treat obstructive sleep apnea certainly the ODA otorhinolaryngology switch
is me the ENT so certainly you can go to the ENT and and and be treated the
other person is the pulmonologist that's the lung doctor those guys also treat
it now one thing that you need to keep in mind the lung doctors do not do any
there's no surgery involved there so if you need any kind of surgical
intervention usually the pulmonologist will send you to the otolaryngologist if
you have any if you'd like to schedule appointments you can actually call my
office at seven one three four eight six one one two zero the next question
point do you move on to surgery if if you're having trouble certainly I tell patients you know when you when you get put on CPAP it's not gonna be the type of thing that you Tinnitus 911 Reviews hear you get used to overnight I usually will give them you know a month or two months to kind of get acclimated to the CPAP in addition to that if they feel confined with the traditional CPAP mask we will try some of the other masks there are different types of masks that are less confining we do that and they still fail you know certainly the the next step would be either one of the other non-surgical options depending on the level or the severity of the obstructive sleep apnea which would be the you could potentially use the mandibular advancement device or the pro vent if those were not options then the next step again would be probably some type of cervical intervention the next question is what is the recovery time and pain level for surgical procedures you have described with the with the phase one surgery the uvula palatal for Ingo plasti and the tonsillectomy certainly you do have pain you have pain for about two weeks we give pain medicine the pain medicine takes the edge off but for about two weeks the I mean if you have any nasal surgery nasal surgeries not too bad the septoplasty and the turbinate reduction maybe for about that first week you have some discomfort but certainly certainly not like any of the Palamo procedures as far as the cervical procedures for as far as the phase 2 cervical procedures trach tricky out a tracheostomy is not doesn't
