Symptoms Of Sleep Apnea



When a person suffers from obstructive sleep apnea, they often do not realize that they suffer from the condition. It is usually somebody else sleeping by their side that notices this condition mainly because they start snoring. People who suffer from sleep apnea also tend to feel very tired and sleepy during the day because every time they stop breathing, they wake up and then go back to sleep which means they do not get sound sleep.

Most patients that suffer from sleep apnea also regularly feel that they are choking or gasping for breath. These patients will often have a sore throat and dry mouth as soon as they wake up because of the struggle of trying to breathe even though the airway is blocked. Constant blockage of the airway often leads to lethargic feelings and intellectual impairment where a person finds it difficult to focus and constantly forgets things.

They also get very irritable because of the lack of sleep. People who suffer from sleep apnea do not manage to progress well because of the various problems that they face throughout the day. It's highly recommended to not use sleeping pills in such situations because it could create a lot of complications. If you are experiencing sleep apnea or other sleep-related problems like bruxism or teeth grinding, it is important to speak with a professional as soon as possible.
