How does sleep apnea develop in Obese patients?

Sleep apnea is basically a sleep disorder which interrupts proper breathing while sleeping. Sleep apnea involves the repeated interruption of breathing for almost 10 seconds which in turn reduces the oxygen supply in the blood. Obese adults usually suffer from this disease which is due to the development of a soft tissue in the mouth and throat. While sleeping the muscles of the tongue and throat are relaxed which will cause the soft tissues to block the airways.

What are the possible symptoms of Sleep apnea by obesity?

The probability of sleep apnea is higher in obese patients specially for those who've got fat accumulated in the areas of the trunk and neck. There are various symptoms associated with sleep apnea:

• Waking up repeatedly in the midst of your sleep.
• Snoring loudly
• Waking up all tired and drowsy and feeling sleepy during the day.

What are the treatments related to the disease?

The treatment of sleep apnea is done by treating the underlying cause, which is obesity. Proper exercise and diets are the best treatments for such a condition. This will help you lose weight and also control the symptoms of sleep apnea. Moreover, weight loss reduces the risks of the cardiometabolic issues that are associated with sleep apnea and obesity. Positive nasal airway pressure treatments are also utilized as a part of the treatment.
