How Does Weight Affect Sleep Apnea Treatment?
Share
Weight can significantly impact sleep apnea treatment. Excess weight, particularly around the neck, can increase the risk of airway obstruction during sleep, worsening sleep apnea symptoms. Losing weight can reduce the severity of these symptoms and enhance the effectiveness of treatments like CPAP therapy. Maintaining a healthy weight can also decrease the need for more invasive treatments and improve overall sleep quality.
