Sleep Apnea and Allergies | Maricopa, Arizona
🌟 Struggling to get a restful night’s sleep? Allergies and sleep apnea may be disrupting your breathing and leaving you tired. Both conditions can block airflow, making it harder for your body to recover overnight.
Understanding Sleep Apnea
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) occurs when your airway is blocked during sleep, causing pauses in breathing. Symptoms include loud snoring, gasping, and daytime fatigue. Untreated sleep apnea can increase the risk of heart disease, high blood pressure, and memory problems.
How Allergies Affect Sleep
Seasonal pollen, dust, pet dander, and mold can trigger nasal congestion and mouth breathing, worsening sleep apnea. Allergic inflammation narrows airways, reducing airflow at night and disrupting rest.
