One of the biggest risks for people that not many are talking about in India is sleep apnea. People generally tend to dismiss snoring as a simple side effect of sleeping, but this is not always true. The best course of prevention for sleep apnea is opting for a CPAP machine. First, let’s take a look at sleep apnea and how it can affect you.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Sleep Apnea and Its Dangers<\/h2>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Sleep apnea is a medical condition that is responsible for obstructing breathing passages during sleep. The respiratory muscles collapse and force the person to breathe through the mouth or sometimes stop breathing for a short while. Snoring is an indication of sleep apnea which, in worst cases, can even be fatal for the person.<\/p>

Choosing the right CPAP machine and mask suited to your facial contours can prevent sleep apnea. We detail what a CPAP mask is and how to choose the right one for you.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t

What Is a CPAP Mask?<\/h2>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

A CPAP mask is an integral part of a CPAP machine. It creates a pressurized breathing environment that prevents the blocking of the airways. It is the most effective form of treatment against sleep apnea available today.<\/p>

The choice of CPAP machine depends on how severe the problem is for the person. People with acute sleep apnea will need a more powerful CPAP machine and a better-fitting mask to prevent loss of breath. If a person is just snoring, a lower-pressure CPAP device could be more suitable for their needs.<\/p>

The choice of CPAP masks is important to each individual, depending on their need and specific facial contours.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t

What Type of CPAP Mask Should I Use?<\/h2>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

Choosing the right CPAP mask is about how comfortable you are with it and the severity of your sleep apnea. In most cases, your doctor will recommend the right mask for you depending on various factors. But it is good to know you have different choices when selecting a mask.<\/p>

If you sleep on your side<\/b>, it is the optimal position for preventing sleep apnea. The best mask to choose is the nasal pillow mask which has a low profile and is comfortable. Another option is a wider nasal mask which effectively seals and is soft. The effect of gravity on your nasal passages is significantly reduced and results in fewer episodes during the night.<\/p>

People who sleep on their backs<\/b> have a wide range of choices because they can accommodate even the biggest masks without any problem. Back sleepers have the most problems with sleep apnea as their airways are more prone to collapse. Ensure that you let your doctor know that you sleep on your back. Any type of mask will fit back sleepers – you can choose one depending on how comfortable it is and the effectiveness of the seal.<\/p>

If you have sleep apnea and sleep on your stomach<\/b>, choosing the mask you wear becomes really important. This is one of the more uncommon sleeping positions for people with sleep apnea. The best choice of mask for this position is a nasal pillow mask. It prevents leaks that occur in this position and prevents the mask from being dislodged.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
