Sleep Disorder
My mother can not breathe by nose while sleeping. Her mouth inadvertently opens
and she breathes through mouth. Due to this, her mouth dries up and she has to drink a lot of water. As a result of this, she uses the toilet 3 to 4 times during night. This is taking a toll on her body. She is a government employee, she doesn't feel great in the morning. Her body aches a lot due to this. Please suggest about this medical problem.
