Did You Know? | Lung Health Fact – Sleep apnea
Sleep apnoea is a condition that affects breathing during sleep, causing repeated pauses in breathing throughout the night. Obstructive sleep apnoea is frequently associated with obesity.
If left untreated, it can lead to serious health complications, including heart problems and daytime fatigue.
Common signs include:
* Loud snoring
* Gasping or choking during sleep
* Excessive daytime sleepiness
* Difficulty concentrating
Seeking medical advice and appropriate treatment can greatly improve sleep quality and overall health.
At the Lung Foundation of Malaysia (LFM), we encourage early evaluation of sleep-related breathing disorders.
