Obesity

Symptoms

Obesity usually happens over time. The most obvious symptom is weight gain, but other symptoms of obesity include:

• Difficulty sleeping
• Snoring
• Sleep apnea
• Pain in the back and/or joints
• Excessive sweating
• Always feeling hot
• Rashes or infection in folds of skin
• Feeling out of breath with minor exertion
• Daytime sleepiness or fatigue
• Depression

If you have symptoms associated with obesity, see your doctor or health care provider to discuss your weight-loss options. Even modest weight loss can improve or prevent problems related to obesity.
