7. Difficulty Sleeping: The Rest-Stealing Effect of Allergic Asthma
Individuals with allergic asthma often experience difficulty sleeping due to the exacerbation of symptoms at night. Nocturnal asthma can be particularly distressing, as it not only disrupts sleep but also affects overall well-being and daily functioning.
Common nighttime symptoms of allergic asthma include coughing, wheezing, shortness of breath, and chest tightness. These symptoms can be triggered by allergen exposure, lying down, or even temperature changes.
To improve sleep quality, it’s essential to address nighttime asthma symptoms by following your healthcare provider’s recommendations and adjusting your asthma management plan as needed. Additionally, maintaining a consistent sleep schedule and practicing good sleep hygiene can help improve overall sleep quality and well-being. (7)
