OSA will not go away by itself. The most common treatment is Continuous Positive Airway Pressure equipment. Otherwise known as CPAP, this equipment applies a continuous steady level of pressure of air to your upper airway. Since the pressure is maintained at above that of the surrounding air, then your upper airways are kept open and not constricted. It is a highly effective treatment for OSA but not a permanent one. For a permanent solution, your doctor or a sleep laboratory may recommend you have excess tissue in your airway removed surgically. Other treatments are not so effective immediately, but changes to your lifestyle will certainly benefit you in the long run. Exercise every day, particularly in the morning, get fresh air outdoors, do something relaxing before you go to bed such as take a warm bath, maintain a comfortably warm temperature in your bedroom but not enough to make you sweat, and make sure you use your bed for sleeping and sex only.
