When the muscles in the back of the throat relax, it causes sleep apnea. These muscles provide support for the tonsils, the tongue, the soft palate, the uvula, the side walls of the throat, and the triangular piece of tissue that hangs from the soft palate. Your airway narrows or shuts as you inhale when the muscles relax. Your blood's oxygen level may decrease if you don't get enough air. When your brain detects that you are having trouble breathing, it abruptly wakes you up so that you can clear your air passages. This awakening is usually so brief that it is forgotten. Each hour throughout the night, this sequence may repeat itself five to thirty times or more. #shorts #animation #sleepapnea #sleep _____________________________________________________________________________________________ Subscribe: https://rb.gy/9lifdm Contact: info@drwealz.com The information and resources provided on this channel are for educational and informational purposes only.
