Sleep apnea is a sleep disorder characterized by pauses in breathing or shallow breathing during sleep, leading to disrupted sleep patterns and inadequate oxygenation of the body.

Most common symptoms of sleep apnea:

Loud snoring, choking sensations during sleep, daytime fatigue, irritability, difficulty concentrating

Understanding the symptoms and risk factors associated with sleep apnea is crucial for early detection and intervention.
The cause of sleep apnea is often related to the constant noise in the environment, contributing to the vicious cycle of worry and lack of sleep.
