Obstructive sleep apnea
I have been diagnosed with OSA for past 2 years. Loud snoring and excessive neck fat. I have started BIPap but have a few doubts.
1. Are there any side effects of BiPap.
2. Can wrong pressure setting harm you.
3. If i somehow get infected with Covid, will the forced air push the virus deeper in the lungs??
Please help me by answering all these questions.
