Symptoms of tracheitis

summary

The main cause of bronchitis is chronic nonspecific inflammation of bronchus caused by repeated infection of virus and bacteria. When the temperature drops, the small vasospasm and ischemia of respiratory tract, and the defense function decreases, it is beneficial to cause the disease; Chronic irritation such as smog, dust and air pollution can also cause the disease; Smoking can cause bronchospasm, mucosal variation, decreased ciliary movement and increased mucus secretion, which is beneficial to infection; Allergic factors also have a certain relationship. Symptoms of tracheitis? Let's talk about it

Symptoms of tracheitis

Cough: long term, repeated and gradually aggravated cough is the prominent manifestation of the disease. Mild cases only occur in winter and spring, especially before and after getting up in the morning. Cough is less in the daytime. In summer and autumn, cough is relieved or disappeared. Severe patients cough in all seasons, especially in winter and spring, day and night.

Expectoration: the general sputum is white mucous foam, and it is more frequent in the morning. After infection or cold, the symptoms quickly worsened, the amount of sputum increased, viscosity increased, or yellow purulent sputum or accompanied by wheezing. Occasionally, the sputum is bloody due to severe cough.

Asthma: when combined with respiratory tract infection, due to congestion and edema of bronchiolar mucosa, sputum obstruction and bronchial stenosis, can produce asthma (wheezing) symptoms. Wheezing occurred in the throat during breathing and wheezing occurred in the lung during auscultation. This type of asthma is called asthmatic bronchitis clinically; But its attack condition is not like the typical bronchial asthma.
