What is sleep apnea? What are the remedies and medicines?

Up to urinate 3-5 times and mucas was stabbed in the throat. I'll sleep in the office and while driving.

Sleep apnea is the cessation of breathing during sleep. Breathing resumes in general, but not before the oxygen levels in blood drop to unhealthy levels. If left untreated, can cause daytime sleepiness, difficulty waking in the morning, even if you have had a lot of sleep, headaches, severe cases can cause a heart attack or death. It is caused by soft tissue in the back of the mouth relax during sleep, to the point where they close the airway. There is usually accompanied by snoring, sometimes explosively loud snoring. There are a number of treatments but there is no "best" un-some work for some people and not work for others. If the patient is overweight apnea, the first thing to do is try to lose weight gradually through diet and exercise. When weight gain, soft tissues tend to be thicker and easier to seal and when you lose that reduce weight and tend to be more likely to remain open. Decongestants can help temporarily reduce the soft tissues but the constant use of decongestants can reduce its effectiveness, tolerance is constructed. They also have side effects. Another treatment for sleep apnea include CPAP machine (continuous positive pressure air), which pumps a constant flow of air through the nostrils to keep airway open. It may take a little getting used to one of these before you can sleep with the camera in the face, but is very effective. Surgery can remove items from your soft palate (the back of the roof of the mouth) and in some patients to reduce or eliminate apnea, but surgery results are mixed, and if some people do not miss the excised tissue, others are very uncomfortable and I regret having the surgery. I encourage you to get the most information as possible about treatment options so you can decide what is best for you.
