▍If you are yawning excessively it could be a health warning

Doesn’t yawning simply mean a person is tired? 

Excessive yawning might be a warning your body is sending you and could even be related to one of the major illnesses listed below

Cardiovascular disease : If the yawning is accompanied by a tightening of the chest, back pain, a general lack of energy and cold sweats it could be a sign of cardiovascular disease

Cervical spondylosis : If your arms feel numb and you are unsteady on your feet go for a medical check-up as soon as possible 

Cerebrovascular accident/Stroke : Elderly patients with high blood pressure, diabetes and high blood fats are at high risk of a stroke

Do not ignore these symptoms and if you encounter any abnormal situation seek immediate medical attention. You can also use 1955 E-LINE and the “Medical Map” option in the menu
