Snoring Treatment in India

Vivaan Bhatia, a 42-year-old software architect and father of two young children, had been a loud, chronic snorer for over a decade. His wife, Priya, had resorted to sleeping in the guest room, and Vivaan himself woke up feeling perpetually exhausted, with a dry mouth and morning headaches. Despite trying various over-the-counter nasal strips and positional therapy, his snoring persisted, straining his marriage and affecting his focus at work. During a consultation, an ENT specialist performed a nasoendoscopy and diagnosed him with a significantly deviated septum and enlarged turbinates, which were obstructing his airway. The doctor recommended a septoplasty with turbinate reduction. Vivaan was anxious about surgery but hopeful for relief. The procedure was done under general anesthesia and was uneventful. The first week of recovery was uncomfortable, with nasal congestion and mild pain managed by medication. Within two weeks, his breathing improved dramatically. A month later, Priya reported the snoring had completely stopped. Emotionally, Vivaan moved from feeling like a burden and being constantly fatigued to regaining his energy and, most importantly, the intimacy of sharing a bed with his wife again, which repaired a significant point of tension in their relationship.
