Sleep Apnea: Signs You Should Never Ignore
Loud snoring, daytime fatigue and morning headaches can signal obstructive sleep apnea — a condition linked to heart disease. Diagnosis, sleep studies and treatment explained.
Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) is far more than a snoring problem. Repeated airway collapse during sleep drops oxygen levels and is strongly linked to hypertension, diabetes, arrhythmia and stroke.
Diagnosis begins with a structured clinical assessment and an overnight sleep study. Treatment is matched to severity — weight optimisation, positional therapy and CPAP for moderate-to-severe disease.
For selected anatomical causes, surgical options such as septoplasty, turbinate reduction or palatal procedures can meaningfully reduce airway obstruction. Treated OSA transforms energy, mood and long-term cardiovascular health.
