Pleurisy Bronchitis Pneumonia: Bronchitis and Pneumonia:
#1
Smile 
[size=4][b]Pleurisy Bronchitis Pneumonia - Bronchitis and Pneumonia - Various Differences Explained[/b][/size][hr]Is very difficult to understand the differences between bronchitis and pneumonia. Both are diseases of the lower respiratory system and have an equally adverse effect on pulmonary air passages. Proper knowledge about the difference between pneumonia and bronchitis facilitates correct diagnosis, a factor that is of utmost importance in the effective management and treatment of respiratory disorders. :o.

[size=large][b]What is Pneumonia?[/b][/size][hr]Pneumonia is a severe infection of the lungs in which pus and other fluids fill the alveoli and prevent the free flow of air into the lungs. Due to this, the body does not get sufficient oxygen, and the cells are unable to function normally. Headache, excessive sweating, fatigue, and lack of appetite are some of the symptoms of pneumonia. The condition, if not treated with care, can cause death. We needed lots of concentration while writing on Bronchitis Treatment as the matter we had collected was very specific and important.

Group A or streptococcus pyogenes is also responsible for pneumonia. - Staphylococcus aureus causes pneumonia in about 10-15 percent of hospitalized people. A fragile immune system and pre-existing viral influenza go hand in hand with this variety of pneumonia.

[b]Certain viruses such as SARS (severe acute respiratory distress syndrome) virus, adenoviruses, herpesviruses, influenza viruses, RSV (respiratory syncytial virus), and HPV (human parainfluenza virus) also cause pneumonia.[/b]

[size=large][b]Gram Negative Bacteria Causes Certain Cases of Community-Acquired Pneumonia[/b][/size][hr]It also attacks people suffering from chronic lung disorders and children suffering from cystic fibrosis. The magnitude of information available on Acute Bronchitis can be found out by reading the following matter on Acute Bronchitis. We ourselves were surprised at the amount!

[list][*]Regional and occupational pneumonia: For example, exposure to chemicals or cattle can cause this condition.[*]What is Bronchitis?[*]Bronchitis is a disorder characterized by inflammation of the bronchi or air passages that transport air from the trachea to the lungs.[*]Inflammation of the bronchi leads to the accumulation of mucus, which causes the blocking of the bronchial cells.[*]The body then takes refuge in the cough mechanism to get rid of the accumulated mucus.[*]Unfortunately, cough, while it gets rid of excess mucus, also makes the air passages more susceptible to infection.[*]Moreover, if the infection continues, the tissues of the bronchi might get damaged.[*]Writing this composition on Pneumonia Bronchitis was a significant contribution of ours in the world of literature.[*]Make this contribution worthwhile by using it.[/list]

Quote:[list][*]Opportunistic pneumonia: As long as your immune system is in good condition, you don't have to worry about contracting this disease.[*]However, people with weak immune systems should take special care not to get infected.[*]Maintaining the value of Bronchitis Doctor was the main reason for writing this article.[*]Only in this way will the future know more about Bronchitis Doctor. Big Grin[/list]

[size=large][b]Causes and Treatment of Bronchitis[/b][/size][hr]Around ninety percent of the people contract acute bronchitis due to viral infection. Many cases are also caused due to bacterial infection. If you contract acute bronchitis many times, you might contract chronic bronchitis sooner or later. Infection need not always be the cause for acute bronchitis. If you live in a dirty, polluted area or if you a heavy smoker, you stand a greater risk of contracting chronic bronchitis.

Several factors are responsible for pneumonia; however, the major causes of this condition are bacteria. - Streptococcus pneumoniae causes community-acquired pneumonia in around 20-60 percent adults and 13-30 percent children. Slang is one thing that has not been included in this composition on Chronic Bronchitis. It is because slang only induces bad English, and loses the value of English.

[size=large][b]Aspiration Pneumonia: in this Condition, Bacteria are Present in the Oral Cavity[/b][/size][hr]If the bacteria remain in the oral cavity, they are harmless. However, if they penetrate the lungs, perhaps due to a weakening of the gag reflex, they could cause pneumonia. Give yourself a momentary pause while reading what there is to read here on Viral Bronchitis. Use this pause to reflect on what you have so far written on Viral Bronchitis.

[list][*]Chronic bronchitis is a long-term condition that can last anywhere from three weeks to two years.[*]It always comes with a danger of relapse.[*]In severe cases of chronic bronchitis, the bronchi get dilated, and this makes the patient more vulnerable to all types of infection.[*]Due to its life-threatening nature, it should be taken seriously, and proper medical care should be taken to keep it in check. [/list]

[size=large][b]Types of Bronchitis[/b][/size][hr]Basically, there are two types of bronchitis--acute and chronic bronchitis. Acute bronchitis is a short-term condition accompanied by a bad flu or a cold. It can keep you in a miserable condition for around two weeks. In certain cases, viral bronchitis can last for 8-12 weeks. The information available on Viral Bronchitis is infinite. There just seems to be so much to learn about, and to write about on Viral Bronchitis.

The condition is due to viral infection, polluted conditions, or heavy smoking, it is of no use taking antibiotics because they can do nothing to eliminate irritants or viruses. Antibiotics are useful only in case of bacterial infection.

[size=large][b]Types of Pneumonia[/b][/size][hr]There are different types of pneumonia. Atypical Pneumonia: Bacteria are responsible for these types of pnuemonia, including walking pneumonia. A person suffering from this variety could have a dry cough. It is a mild variety, and the patient need not be admitted to the hospital. The completion of this article on Bronchitis Pneumonia was our prerogative since the past one month. However, we completed it within a matter of fifteen days!

[list][*]Bronchitis is a pulmonary disease caused by the onset of inflammation in the bronchial tubes, which are the air passages into the lungs.[*]In bronchitis these air passages become inflamed and swollen, a thick mucus is generally produced, and is often accompanied by a wheezing cough.[*]Symptoms may also include a difficulty in breathing, the need to constantly cough out mucus, and a mild to moderate fever.[*]There are two forms of bronchitis, acute and chronic, which are somewhat similar and with similar causes, but run their course in different ways.[/list]

Chronic bronchitis, also known as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease or COPD, may include fever, nasal congestion, and a hacking cough that can linger for months at a time. As the condition gets worse, the affected person becomes increasingly short of breath, has difficulty with physical exertion, and may require supplemental oxygen. Chemical and biological irritation is believed to be the primary cause of chronic bronchitis, with exposure to cigarette smoke being the main cause. The severity of the disease is often determined by the extent and duration of exposure to tobacco smoke. So after reading what we have mentioned here on Bronchitis Acute, it is up to you to provide your verdict as to what exactly it is that you find fascinating here.

Acute bronchitis is characterized by a slight fever that may last for a few days to weeks, and is often accompanied by a cough that may persist for several weeks. Acute bronchitis often occurs after a cold or the flu, as the result of bacterial infection, or from constant irritation of the bronchi by polluted air or chemical fumes in the environment. It may initially affect your nose, sinuses, and throat and then spread to the lungs. For acute bronchitis, symptoms usually resolve within 7 to 10 days, however, a dry, hacking cough can linger for several weeks. Writing on Chronic Bronchitis proved to be a gamble to us. This is because there simply seemed to be nothing to write about in the beginning of writing. It was only in the process of writing did we get more and more to write on Chronic Bronchitis. Smile

[size=large][b]The Chance for Recovery is Poor for People With Advanced Chronic Bronchitis[/b][/size][hr]Early recognition and treatment, however, can significantly improve the opportunity for a good outcome. Chronic bronchitis also makes you susceptible to recurrent respiratory infections. Call your doctor if you suffer any of these symptoms: coughing up blood; shortness of breath or chest pain; a high fever or shaking chills; a low-grade fever that lasts for three or more days; thick, greenish mucus; or a frequently recurring cough. Looking for something logical on Bronchitis Herbs, we stumbled on the information provided here. Look out for anything illogical here.
