STOP EXCESSIVE YAWNING?
Are you a person who
excessively yawns regularly? Let’s find some ways to stop excessive Yawning
with some researched work and steps (in this article).
What is yawning?
To be straightforward,
Yawning is an automatic, involuntary action of opening the mouth widely and
inhaling the air deeply, filling the lungs with air and following a short
exhalation.
The most common sign of
Yawning is being tired or fatigue or sleepiness. Sometimes it occurs when a
person is dealing with boredom and also due to the reduced levels of oxygen
(linked to energy levels).
Do you know that some
actors start yawning several times before performing a crying scene? It’s all
because when we yawn deeply, it creates pressure on lacrimal glands resulting
in releasing the tears, for instance. That’s the reason why the tears start
coming while a person yawns. Isn’t it an interesting thing?
Some people yawn short,
and some yawns for several seconds before exhaling the air. And some people
yawn with some audible sighs carried by watery eyes.
“Yawning can help to cool the temperature of
the brain.”
Yawning could help one
person to stretch (relax) the muscles of the pharynx and tongue and could be
the whole body muscles too.
Yawning is a contagious
reaction, which means that when one yawns in a group, it makes the other person
yawn unintentionally. Not only when a person yawns, but whenever a person reads
or watches anything related to Yawning makes the person actually do the event.
CAUSES OF EXCESSIVE YAWNING:
As per the senior
consultant from best
hospital in hyderabad said, It is not fixed
that only tiredness, fatigue or sleepiness can cause excessive Yawning; but
there are several reasons for this such as sleep disorders, side effects of
medications, anxiety, heart problems, stroke, brain tumours, liver failure and
depression.
Let’s discuss some common and important causes:
Sleep Disorders:
Sleep disorders are the
most common cause of yawns, such as sleep apnea or narcolepsy. Nowadays, due to
the heavy schedule and work, most people don’t follow the sleep-wake cycle in
the exact way it needs to be followed. There is no fixed time to sleep and
wake. It finally results in lack of sleep which eventually makes the person
feel tired or fatigue in the day time, and it causes yawns (more often).
If one person has a
sleep disorder, then it’s to consult a doctor for advice.
Depression:
Now, you may be
thinking about how depression could be a trigger of yawning? Well, it has a lot
more to do with depression to reduce yawning. Yawns are caused by the fatigue
that comes with depression. Whenever we feel depressed or stressed out with the
things or the situations, we feel tired (fatigue). Follow some steps to reduce
depression.
Over the Counter Medications:
Yes, there are chances
that over the counter medications (some prescribed medications) causes yawns.
Visit the doctor asking to reduce the dosage of medicines or change the
medicines. This is because some medicines can make you feel tired or fatigued.
It is better to consult the doctor and ask to change the medicines.
Stroke:
Some research
says that Yawnings may happen before or after a stroke. People who have a
stroke yawns more often(excessively) than usual. Most of the medical
professionals believe that Yawning can reduce the temperature of the brain.
These are the situations which occur less commonly.
And even the heart
attack, epilepsy and liver failure are also some less common causes of
excessive Yawning.
