Treatments For Better Breathing
If you feel like you never get a good night’s sleep or your roommate complains about your snoring, you could be suffering from an undiagnosed sleep disorder. These are just two of many symptoms that may point to a problem with breathing during sleeping. Sleep disorders are often ignored, which can lead to serious complications, like:
• Chronic daytime sleepiness
• High blood pressure
• Heart attack
• Stroke
• Heartburn/acid-reflux
• Morning headaches
• Depression
SLEEP DISORDERED BREATHING IN KIDS
You may not know it, but sleep-disordered breathing afflicts a huge number of children. Often, children diagnosed with attention deficit disorder are actually suffering from a sleep disorder. Furthermore, snoring, prolonged bedwetting, and grinding are all indicators that your child may not be getting the proper oxygenation for optimal brain development.
