Snoring is not only an annoying noise for others, but also a serious symptom that can indicate dangerous health problems. Otolaryngologists emphasize that snoring, especially in adults and children, can be a signal of respiratory disorders during sleep, which can cause harm to health.
During snoring, pauses often occur in breathing, which can last up to 10 seconds. This can lead to a decrease in the level of oxygen in the blood, which adversely affects the body. The greatest danger is the night stop of breathing, as it leads to oxygen starvation, which harms not only the cardiovascular system, but the whole body. If breathing during sleep often stops, the brain is forced to wake up to restore the respiratory process that disrupts the sleep cycle. This leads to constant fatigue and headache that appear in the morning. Snoring for children is especially dangerous. They, due to insufficient oxygen, may have problems with the development of the body. Children can wake up restless, have reduced appetite and general weakness.
- Oxygen is most consumed on the brain and muscles. If the baby does not receive enough oxygen during sleep, it immediately affects his or her well -being, - the doctor notes. Snoring and respiratory disorders during sleep are treated and it is important to see a doctor to avoid serious complications.
Obstructive apnea syndrome, when a patient who snore suddenly stops breathing and then continues to breathe due to fraising, is one of the most common disorders. It not only worsens the quality of sleep, but can also lead to the development of chronic fatigue syndrome. This condition also interferes with the peaceful sleep of other family members.
