Common Sleep Disorders We Treat
There are a variety of sleep disorders that can interfere with your ability to rest properly. Our expert team provides comprehensive diagnosis and treatment for the following:
Sleep apnea occurs when your breathing is repeatedly interrupted during sleep. This can result in loud snoring, choking, or gasping for air. There are two main types of sleep apnea: obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), which is caused by a physical blockage in the airway, and central sleep apnea, where the brain fails to properly signal the muscles to breathe. Both types can significantly impact your health if left untreated.
Insomnia is difficulty falling asleep or staying asleep, leading to poor-quality or insufficient rest. It can be caused by stress, anxiety, medications, or underlying health conditions. People with insomnia often experience daytime fatigue, which can affect work performance, relationships, and overall mood.
Restless Leg Syndrome causes an irresistible urge to move your legs, usually due to uncomfortable sensations. This often occurs at night, making it hard to fall asleep or stay asleep.
Narcolepsy is a neurological condition that causes extreme daytime sleepiness and sudden sleep “attacks.” Those with narcolepsy may unexpectedly fall asleep during the day, even during activities like driving or working.
Snoring, though not always a sign of a sleep disorder, can indicate issues like obstructive sleep apnea or airway blockages. If snoring disrupts sleep or is accompanied by choking or gasping, it should be addressed quickly.
Circadian rhythm disorders occur when your natural sleep-wake cycle is out of sync. This can result from shift work, jet lag, or other factors that disturb your sleep schedule.
Symptoms of Sleep Disorders
Many people with sleep disorders may not realize they have a problem till it impacts their daily lives. Here are some common symptoms that could indicate a sleep disorder:
- Daytime Fatigue: Constant tiredness or a lack of energy during the day, despite spending enough time in bed, is one of the most common signs of sleep deprivation or sleep apnea.
- Difficulty Staying Awake: Inability to stay alert during daytime activities, such as work, driving, or socializing, can be a result of poor sleep quality.
- Loud Snoring or Gasping for Air: If you snore loudly or wake up choking, gasping, or feeling short of breath, it may be a sign of sleep apnea.
- Restlessness at Night: Frequent tossing and turning, or the urge to move your legs, could indicate restless leg syndrome or other sleep-related issues.
- Mood Swings or Irritability: Lack of quality sleep can have a direct impact on your mood, causing feelings of irritability, depression, or anxiety.
- Difficulty Concentrating: Chronic sleep deprivation can affect cognitive functions such as memory, attention, and problem-solving skills.
- Night Sweats: Night sweats are when you sweat excessively during the night, often soaking your clothes or sheets. This can disrupt your sleep and leave you feeling uncomfortable. Conditions like sleep apnea, hormone imbalances, infections, or certain medications can cause night sweats.
- Frequent Nighttime Urination: Waking up multiple times during the night to use the bathroom, known as nocturia, can disrupt your sleep. It may be linked to sleep apnea, bladder issues, or other underlying health conditions.
