I am 32 years working professional in pharmaceutical company. I am suffering from snoring due to sleep apnea. My both nostrils mostly in closing position. When one is open other closed. I want a surgery for snoring. Is it safe and how many days it will take to recover?

Snoring will lead to sleep apnea. And what you told symptoms LS due to turbinate hypertrophy or septal deviation. And for sleep apnea mostly the treatment will be nonsurgical. And for nose symptoms it needs workup and role of surgery to be evaluated.

You don't need a surgery at the earliest. You can see a pulmonologist and let him decide whether you require a CPAP or surgery. Secondly the nose blockage can also be a sign of allergy and allergic rhinitis. A surgery won't be able to help you out for it unless there is some polyp or mass.
