Health News Desk, Yawning is a normal process of a tired body. When we get tired or bored of something, we start yawning. Generally, when people are tired, their hormones start yawning to alert the body. This is a normal medical process, but if you yawn repeatedly then it may be wrong to call it normal. Actually, yawning or yawning repeatedly throughout the day indicates many health problems. Let us know today how dangerous it can be for the body if you are yawning repeatedly.
More than three yawns in five minutes is abnormal
Health experts say that if a person yawns three to four times a day, it may be normal, but if you yawn more than three times in five minutes, it is an abnormal process. The first sign behind this is that your body needs a lot of sleep which is not being fulfilled. This can be a sign of sleep apnea. Often due to work pressure, insomnia, snoring or fatigue, people are not able to sleep well and their sleep is disturbed. In such a situation, yawning occurs repeatedly.
Yawning can also occur due to excessive medication.
Health experts say that if you are taking some medicines for a long time, then due to this you may yawn repeatedly. Actually, these medicines have the properties of antipsychotics or antidepressants, due to which one yawns repeatedly. Sometimes, due to brain disorders also one yawns repeatedly. Due to brain related diseases like Parkinson’s, migraine, multiple sclerosis, a person yawns repeatedly. If someone has a problem of anxiety or stress, then also he yawns repeatedly.
Yawning also occurs due to lack of oxygen.
Frequent yawning can be a sign that your heart is in danger. Actually, when there is a lack of oxygen in the body, then frequent yawning starts. Due to lack of oxygen, the risk of heart attack increases. Although excessive yawning is not a direct sign of heart attack, it can indicate low oxygen supply in the body.
