The night is meant for rest and recovery — but for some, it becomes a silent test for the heart. While most people sleep peacefully, a few experience sudden palpitations, skipped beats, or even dangerous rhythm disturbances. Known as nocturnal arrhythmias, these episodes can occur in both healthy and heart-diseased individuals. Understanding why they happen, who is at risk, and how to prevent them can make all the difference between a restful night and a restless one.

Every human body speaks — not in words, but in sensations, rhythms, and changes. When you feel discomfort, fatigue, or unusual pain, your body is communicating. Patient empowerment means learning to listen to these signs and responding wisely. It is not self-diagnosis; it is self-awareness. When patients understand their symptoms, they bridge the gap between fear and knowledge — and that is where healing truly begins.

Headache is among the most common human experiences—almost every person encounters it at some point in life. Yet, not all headaches are harmless.

This avoidable delay turns simple conditions into complicated diseases.
