MADURAI: For those who are facing sleep disorders and snoring issues while sleeping, there is a medical alert to their family members from a leading ENT surgeon in Madurai that there is something wrong with that particular person and you should not sleep on that issue.
“Snoring is a very big issue which comes to our Om Sakthi Hospital….in Tamil we call as ‘Korattai’… It has become a big family issue at home because other family members cannot sleep if there is high level of snoring at night time. I have seen many medical reports recently. Sleep study became an important issue in medical field now and sleep results of the patient is an important indicator. The reasons for snoring should be studied fully starting from peripheral level and causes of obstruction from throat side.
Snoring is a dangerous sign and an alert to the family members. They should watch it and if it is becoming a disturbance for others sleep also, then it is a must to take that particular person to a ENT doctor. At Om Sakthi Speciality Hospital in K.Pudur in Madurai, we have a sleep lab where we treat sleep disorder cases and related sleep issues through Dr.Arun Ganesh who got specially trained at top level institutions in snoring and sleep issues,” Prof.Dr.KR.Kannappan, Medical Director, Om Sakthi Speciality Hospital in Madurai K.Pudur, has said while speaking to ‘Lotus Times’ English media website in Madurai on September 16th 2024, while sharing his more than three decades of ENT experience at Government Rajaji Hospital and in Madurai Medical College here.
