  1. SLEEP DIFFICULTIES - CAUSES, DIAGNOSIS & TREATMENT

  2. Definition of Sleeping Difficulty & its causes • Sleeping difficulty means difficulty in falling asleep, difficulty staying asleep, or waking up too early. Low quality sleep and a lack of sleep both can negatively affect a person’s health. Causes of Sleeping Difficulties • Sleeping Habits :- Bad Sleeping habits can cause Sleeping Disorder. It includes sleeping too much during the day time and too much stimulation before bed time (such as watching television,exercising or playing video games). • Medical Conditions :- Several serious health conditions, such as stroke, cancer, Alzheimer’s disease, HIV and end-stage renal disease , may result in sleeping problems. Some types of medical conditions can cause sleep disorders. Such as, patients with central sleep apnea stop breathing during sleep. • Lifestyle Choices :- Sometimes Lifestyle choices also cause sleeping difficulties such as consuming too much caffeine, lack of exposure to sunlight, frequent urination, physical pain, jet lag, noise disturbances, an uncomfortable bedroom, or a feeling of excitement and some prescription medications may also lead to difficulty sleeping. • Ageing :- Ageing is also a major cause of sleep difficulty. Your sleep is different than it used to be when you were younger. It happens to many people.

  3. Treatment of Sleeping Disorder • Treatment for your sleeplessness depends on its cause. In some cases,simple lifestyle or at-home remedies changes can improve the quality of your sleep. You should avoid caffeine and alcohol for at least a few or more hours before bedtime. • Limit any daytime napping to 20 minutes or none at all if possible. Keep your bedroom cool and dark. • Avoid stimulating activities before bedtime, and allow seven to eight hours of sleeping. Taking a hot bath and listening to soothing music before bedtime may also help. Keep a regular sleep schedule. • You may also purchase some sleep aids without any prescription. However,if you don’t get a full seven or eight hours of sleep, sleep aids can cause daytime drowsiness. Also, do not use these products frequently , as it may lead to a dependency. Always remember to read the directions closely and take the medication as directed on it.
