Depending on the cause of the sleep apnea, a treatment plan may be needed. If the cause is enlarged tonsils, a falling tongue, or nasal polyps, surgery may be needed to remove the tonsils and nasal polyps. If the cause is obstructive sleep apnea syndrome, often referred to as OSAS, then non-invasive ventilation, or even anterior chin migration surgery, may be required in severe cases. Another cause is systemic diseases such as narrowing or blockage of the upper airway, myocardial ischemia, asthma, etc., which can also lead to waking up suffocated while sleeping. It is important to take this situation seriously and visit a proper hospital to identify the cause of sleep suffocation so that proper treatment can be made.
