7. Snoring

Obstructive sleep apnea caused by snoring increases the risk of death.

If snoring is neglected and apnea persists, sudden death may occur. One of the things that is always mentioned when talking about quality of life is good sleep. This is because the quality of sleep has a significant impact on the start of the day and daily routines. A typical factor that interferes with the quality of sleep, which is so important, is snoring.

Many people consider snoring to be a simple sleeping habit and ignore it.

Snoring occurs when there is a vortex current in nasal breathing. People tend to take snoring lightly and they often try to improve their symptoms with products available online rather than seeking treatment from a specialist. However, this can be a misconception. Snoring is most commonly associated with sleep apnea, a condition in which a person’s breathing stops intermittently during sleep. It can also cause chronic fatigue due to difficulty falling into deep sleep, which reduces the quality of sleep and is associated with symptoms such as poor concentration and memory, and headaches. Further, it can also cause erectile dysfunction in men and irregular menstrual cycles in women.

Non-surgical methods include the use of devices such as positive airway pressure machines.

Surgical methods can vary depending on the cause, with sinusitis surgery used to treat sinus infection and rhinitis surgery used to treat nasal infection.

Snoring not only reduces your quality of life, but also has a direct impact on your health.
Therefore, we recommend that you do not leave it untreated and actively seek medical attention by visiting a local ENT specialist.
