While snoring is a common problem for many people, it can also be a sign of other major health complications. You may have sleep apnea, a common sleep disorder that affects millions of people. Sleep apnea can cause a variety of health problems, including high blood pressure, stroke, heart disease, and diabetes. Snoring affects not only the quality of sleep of the person snoring but also the quality of sleep of their loved ones and other family members. Fortunately, sleep apnea treatment is available to alleviate the symptoms of this condition and improve your overall health.
