Question 
[size=4][b]Acute Bronchitis Allergy - How to Treat and Avoid Bronchitis[/b][/size][hr]
Quote:Bronchitis is the inflammation of the bronchi of the lungs. It is a pulmonary disease from the COPD category. COPD means chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and the agents that may lead to this disease are viruses, bacteria, fungi or just breathing a polluted air, smoking or breathing the cigarettes smoke.Low temperatures in winter also influences the inflammation.

[size=large][b]There are Two Kinds of Bronchitis[/b][/size][hr]The acute or the short -term Bronchitis and the chronic or long -lasting one. There are different agents that determine the disease. Acute bronchitis is often the result of influenza, a cold or an infection. It may be caused by viruses or bacteria. Smoking, pneumoconiosis, excessive alcohol consumption and exposure to cold and draught are the most frequent agents that cause chronic Bronchitis. Chronic Bronchitis manifests with a persistent cough that produces sputum that lasts from three to six months during one or two years. Only in this circumstances we can speak about chronic Bronchitis. It also involves long lasting irritation caused by inhaling certain substances and especially tobacco smoke. This harmful substances determine the glands of the trachea and bronchi to increase the secretion of mucus. In this case the mucus can't be evacuated anymore and it can determine the obstruction of the airways. It is also very possible that an acute Bronchitis becomes chronic. Quality is better than quantity. It is of no use writing numerous pages of nonsense for the reader. Instead, it is better to write a short, and informative article on specific subjects like Bronchitis Dry. People tend to enjoy it more.

The Bronchitis complicates it may cause pulmonary hypertension, chronic respiratory failure or even heart disease. It is not very hard to smoke with bronchitis. It is necessary just to wash your hands frequently, get more rest and drink plenty of liquids. Stop acute bronchitis in it's tracks caused by viruses or bacteria. One can be contaminated with this agents by breathing coughing droplets from the air or by touching contaminated surfaces, by breathing polluted, by smoking or breathing cigarette smoke or other harmful smokes. It is recommended for the smokers in the early stages of chronic Bronchitis to quit smoking. This will help them to avoid complications and the treatment will give best results. We have used clear and concise words in this article on Symptoms Bronchitis to avoid any misunderstandings and confusions that can be caused due to difficult words.

[size=large][b]Is Quite Difficult to Choose an Appropriate Treatment in Chronic Bronchitis[/b][/size][hr]It is recommended to drink lots of liquids which are very helpful for the evacuation of the mucus. It was showed that antibiotics are not the right choice to treat Bronchitis, because the most of them are caused by viruses which don't respond to this kind of treatment. The most appropriate medication is aspirin, an anti- fever drug and steroids to open bronchial tubes and ease coughing. It is also very important that the doctor prescribes anti -tusive drugs. This kind of drugs thin the mucus and they make coughing more effective. And they also helps patients to have a quiet sleep, this because the dry coughing that characterizes the early stages of bronchitis wakes them up and don't let them sleep. So the best results are given by the oxygen therapy, bronchodilator drugs and if it is necessary lung volume reduction surgery. :o.

[size=large][b]There are a Lot of Symptoms that are Characteristic in Bronchitis[/b][/size][hr]First of all there is a persistent, expectorating, dry or wet cough which is very frustrating for the patient, dyspnea or shortness of breath, fatigue, mild fever and mild chest pains.The breath sounds are also very important for the diagnosis. In Bronchitis apears the rhonchi which is the result of a decreased intensity of breath sounds and extended expiration.

Quote:Watch out brief benefits of Naturopathy by Dr Manav Madan (Naturopathy Therapist, Bhiwani). He has told important Naturopathy remedies related to good ...

The first symptoms in Bronchitis are dry cough which turns into a wet one, fever, fatigue and headaches. All this may last for few days, maximum eleven days but the coughing lasts for weeks and even months. It is very important to mention that acute Bronchitis is very contagious. If the symptoms lasts for more than six months it is recommended that the doctor makes the necessary examination to find the cause of the persistent coughing, because it can be asthma or TB. In TB it is characteristic the coughing accompanied by blood. This article on Persistent Cough was written with the intention of making it very memorable to its reader. Only then is an article considered to have reached it's objective.

[list][*]Asthma is a chronic disease of the respiratory tract and is mainly caused by constriction of the air passages due to several reasons.[*]There are quite a few conditions that manifest with symptoms similar to that of asthma.[*]This makes these diseases as well as asthma both very difficult to diagnose.[*]Some conditions that impersonate the symptoms of asthma relatively closely are described here to facilitate ease of detection and treatment.[/list]

Other conditions impersonating asthma may be malignant tumors of the chest like lymphosarcoma and Hodgkin's disease. Also swelling of the wall of aorta known as aneurysm may cause symptoms of asthma. Sometimes inhalation of inorganic and organic substances also causes symptoms of severe asthma. Even if you are a stranger in the world of Bronchitis, once you are through with this article, you will no longer have to consider yourself to be a stranger in it!

[list][*]Foreign body aspiration is found in toddlers mainly who tend to put everything in their mouths.[*]These foreign bodies may then get sucked into the bronchial tubes and get lodged in the trachea.[*]These may be tricky to detect as many foreign bodies do not get reflected on the X-ray and the symptoms are very similar to asthma.[*]The doctors sometimes have to manually check and remove the foreign body with the help of a bronchoscope.[/list]

Cystic fibrosis (CF) is a serious disorder which may produce chronic intestinal and pulmonary problems. The symptoms here are those of severe asthma. The disease may start with recurrent infections and pneumonia. The infants who are underweight and prematurely born generally show the symptoms of CF. the chest X-rays of such children show severe scarring of the lungs due to recurring bouts of pneumonia. CF is best detected with the help of a sweat test because the patients secrete excessive amounts of sodium and chloride salts in their sweat. Smile

Cardiac Asthma: In this situation the symptoms of breathlessness are similar to those of bronchial asthma but they are caused mainly because of a heart disease. These symptoms happen generally during sleep or after exertion. The attacks are very similar to those of asthma accompanied by suffocation and tightening of chest muscles. They may even create pain in the chest region. The patient gasps for breath and is very restless. He may sweat profusely and has terrible difficulty in inhalation and exhalation. This may also be accompanied by a sharp rise in blood pressure and may trigger off terrifying fear of death in patients. The attacks may last for about few minutes to few hours. After the attack the patients feel terribly exhausted even for several days.

Viral Bronchiolitis, Foreign Body Aspiration and Cystic Fibrosis: These three conditions are generally found in children and have symptoms closely mimicking those of asthma. Viral Bronchiolitis is a condition caused by a potent virus called the Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV). This virus causes wheezing and fever and the symptoms do not respond to anti-wheezing treatments.

Other cases it is seen that a patient develops intrinsic asthma after suffering with chronic bronchitis at some very early stages in life. Intrinsic asthma may develop much later and also without any apparent history of allergens or any genetic indications. So many times because of the close relativity of all these diseases it becomes very difficult to chart out the primary cause leading to other complications. Closeness in symptoms also presents a very tricky situation. A substantial amount of the words here are all inter-connected to and about Bronchial Asthma. Understand them to get an overall understanding on Bronchial Asthma.

The asthma may be due to allergens of any kind, which are difficult to detect as it is, and the system thus provoked may lead to more severe disorders. Sometimes the whole cycle may go in a different direction altogether and the patients develop asthma after a prolonged bout of chronic bronchitis. Thus, whichever route the diseases take it becomes complicated to chalk out the path where one may lead to another and symptoms may be very closely entangled.

Chronic Bronchitis and Emphysema: Chronic bronchitis and emphysema are diseases that are very closely related to asthma. It is generally seen that the patients of slightly older ages start with asthma and later on if untreated develop symptoms of chronic bronchitis, which may eventually lead to symptoms of emphysema. Bronchial Asthma is the substance of this composition. Without Bronchial Asthma, there would not have been much to write and think about over here!

[list][*]Contrast to bronchial asthma, cardiac asthma is caused by failure of the pumping action of the left ventricle of the human heart.[*]It is generally a condition that is suspected in people with a history of hyper tension and heart diseases in the family.[*]It is also to be generally ruled out before proceeding for further treatments if the patient happens to be above the age of forty years.[/list]

[size=large][b]Hysterical Emphysema: this is a Disease that is Mostly Psycho-Somatic in Nature[/b][/size][hr]It is generally found in young girls and also in some hyper sensitive older women. In this symptoms are that of heavy breathing but do not show any difficulty in breathing. There is no perspiration and apparently there is no wheezing too. Bu the patient still feels very heavy breathing. The attack usually manifests after an emotionally charged bout that may include uncanny anger.
