Symptoms of chronic bronchitis

summary

Cough and expectoration are the most typical symptoms of chronic bronchitis, characterized by long-term existence and repeated recurrence. With the further development of the disease, the symptoms of the patients will gradually aggravate, especially after getting up in the morning, the symptoms of the patients will be extremely obvious, followed by the most obvious symptoms at night. Here are the symptoms of chronic bronchitis.

Symptoms of chronic bronchitis

Cough: in the early morning, cough is more severe, light in the daytime, and obvious at night in the late stage. Before going to bed, cough attack often occurs, accompanied by expectoration. This is due to bronchial mucosa congestion, edema, secretion accumulation in the bronchial lumen. With the development of the disease, cough does not heal all year round.

Expectoration: the sputum is usually white mucinous or serous foam, even with blood. This is mainly due to the slow cough reflex during sleep at night, accumulation of sputum in the airway cavity, and stimulation of expectoration after getting up in the morning due to postural changes. When the acute attack is accompanied by bacterial infection, the amount of sputum increases, and the sputum becomes viscous or purulent.

Shortness of breath and wheezing: it is not obvious at the beginning of the course of disease. When the course of disease progresses with obstructive emphysema, shortness of breath gradually appears in different degrees, especially after activity. Patients with chronic bronchitis complicated with asthma or so-called asthmatic chronic bronchitis, especially in acute attack, often have symptoms of wheezing and wheezing.
