Does snoring cause it?

Snoring is a disease that affects not only the individual but also those around them. Did you know that such snoring can also cause high blood pressure?

Many patients with snoring also suffer from sleep apnea, a condition characterized by pauses in breathing during sleep.

Sleep apnea causes hypoxia and hypercapnia, which stimulate the sympathetic nervous system during sleep, leading to high blood pressure and contributing to heart dysfunction and various cardiovascular diseases.

In particular, obstructive sleep apnea, which involves airway obstruction within the oral cavity, has been shown to increase the risk of developing hypertension by approximately three times within four years.

You must receive treatment to prevent snoring and hypertension!
