Frequent nighttime awakenings can be associated with serious illness, as most of these cases are accompanied by snoring, muscle discomfort, and cramps. Somnologist Elena Tsareva told about this in an interview with News.ru portal.
According to her, difficulties with sleeping at night can appear in those who suffer from diseases of the respiratory tract, cardiovascular system, as well as inflammation. At the same time, as Tsareva noted, people with thyroid disorders usually suffer from sleepiness during the day and insomnia at night.
“Problems with sleeping at night can occur in a person due to age. The thing is that the production of melatonin decreases in the elderly, a hormone that ensures sound sleep, ”explained the somnologist, adding that because of this, the elderly have superficial and sensitive sleep.
She also advised to see a doctor because she wakes up in the middle of the night three times a week or more for several months or snores constantly. This, according to the expert, can lead to respiratory arrest – apnea.
Earlier, physician and TV presenter Alexander Myasnikov, better known as Doctor Myasnikov, spoke about the consequences of apnea. According to him, diabetes, obesity, arterial hypertension and impotence can develop because of it.
