Suggest Treatment For Yawning While Taking Deep Breaths

Posted on Mon, 9 Nov 2015

Question: Is there treatment for deep breathing associated with yawning

Answered by Dr. Rakesh Madhyastha (1 hour later)

Brief Answer:
No treatment

Detailed Answer:
Hello

Thanks for the query

There is no treatment for yawning while doing deep breathing. The body senses that you are cooling down and slows down the metabolism causing repeated yawns. During the course of time, with deep breathing exercises the yawning will become less in number but you cannot completely get rid of them.

I hope I was of help, if you have any further queries please get back to me

This type of breathing and yawning happens mostly at night and keeps me from sleeping. Could it be related to a stress issue?

Brief Answer:
Triggers for yawning

Detailed Answer:
Hello

Thanks for getting back. Yawning mostly happens at night after one is tired. Stress usually does not cause yawning. Some of the triggers are

1. Lack of sleep
2. lack of oxygen
3. fall in blood pressure
4. fatigue
5. stroke

I am sorry for the short delay in my reply, I was on call at my hospital. Please get back to me if you have any further doubts I'll be happy to clear them out for you
