[size=4][b]Is Bronchitis Contagious Cough - Quit Smoking Side Effects - Part 3[/b][/size][hr]
Quote:This final installment of the side effects of quitting smoking, I want to cover some of the more positive things that you can experience from quitting smoking. There may be many unpleasant side effects that you experience from nicotine withdrawal but there are also many positive reasons why you should be putting a lot of effort into quitting smoking.

The other, more terrifying COPD ailment is emphysema. Emphysema is a disease where the elasticity of the lungs is lost through the damage done by tar and hot smoke to the lung tissue over years of smoking. The lungs effectively stop working and rather than being flexible like balloons, become stagnant like plastic bags. People with emphysema effectively suffocate to death over a period of a few years. It is not a very nice disease so stopping any further progress of lung deterioration has got to be a good thing. We were actually wondering how to get about to writing about Emphysema Bronchitis. However once we started writing, the words just seemed to flow continuously!

[size=large][b]Quit Smoking Side Effect #10: Stop COPD Progress[/b][/size][hr]COPD is Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease. It basically means "long term inefficiencies in the lungs disease". One of the two main COPD ailments are bronchitis; inflammation of the bronchus and bronchi - the air tubes that you breathe through. When these inflame, the air tubes become narrower, restricting the flow of air and your ability to breath.

[size=large][b]Quit Smoking Side Effect #8: Heart Risks Down[/b][/size][hr]The moment you stop smoking is the moment you stop stressing your body with the stimulant effects of nicotine. Nicotine elevates adrenalin levels, suppressing insulin, raising heart rate, breathing rate and blood pressure. All of these things are stress responses and stopping them happening so often means you reduce the stress on your body which is a good thing. Do not judge a book by its cover; so don't just scan through this matter on Bronchitis. read it thoroughly to judge its value and importance.

Stokes are often fatal but is you survive a stroke, it will leave you suffering the inability to walk or being unable to speak, unable to feed, clothe or wash yourself, partially paralysed, incontinent or worse. In bad cases, sufferers end up with more than one of these symptoms. Reducing the risk of turning your family into nurses for you is another great benefit to quitting smoking. It is with much interest that we got about to write on Emphysema Bronchitis. So we do hope that you too read this article with the same, if not more interest!

[list][*]Quit Smoking Side Effects #11: Reduced risk of stroke Many smokers do not think about stroke as a major threat to them.[*]Most smokers have some idea of cancer, heart disease and emphysema and bronchitis but strokes don't figure on their radar. :o[/list]

[size=large][b]Quit Smoking Side Effect #9: Reduced Cancer Risk[/b][/size][hr]Tobacco smoke contains tar that is a collection of thousands of chemicals, some benign but many of them are carcinogenic. One of the most carcinogenic chemicals found in tobacco smoke is benzene. There are strict laws in the US ans across Europe regarding its handling and who can handle it because it is so carcinogenic. When you stop smoking, you stop putting benzene and the other chemicals directly into your body. This has an immediate effect on reducing your cancer risks.

Sometimes, for a person with chronic bronchitis, the symptoms will quickly get worse all of a sudden. This is known as an acute exacerbation of chronic bronchitis, or AECB. Many people that die from chronic bronchitis does so during an episode of acute exacerbation of chronic bronchitis, so a person having an attack of AECB must get medical attention right away to maximize his/her chances of survival.

[size=large][b]What Triggers AECB?[/b][/size][hr]Acute exacerbations of chronic bronchitis are commonly triggered by one or more of the following: -Bacterial or viral infections (e.g. cold, flu) It is always better to have compositions with as little corrections in it as possible. This is why we have written this composition on Chronic Bronchitis Symptoms with no corrections for the reader to be more interested in reading it.

You are experiencing AECB, you should seek medical treatment immediately. AECB has been known to cause other problems, and many are admitted to the hospital every year for complications from AECB. If you are experiencing this, remember not to panic. Keep your breathing as steady as possible, and calmly call a doctor of physician for advice. Because AECB can come suddenly without warning, it is always best to keep any doctor prescribed inhalants on you just in case. Make sure to check with your doctor, and make sure that these inhalers are fine to take when you are experiencing AECB, to avoid any further complications. Try lying down with a humidifier running, or hopping in a warm shower to help you breath and reduce the symptoms of AECB. :o.

[size=large][b]Air Pollutants that Irritate the Lungs (E.G[/b][/size][hr]Smoke, fumes, dust) -Weather changes To avoid AECB, a chronic bronchitic is advised to stay away from places with heavy air pollution, to get flu and pneumonia shots, and to maintain a healthy diet to strengthen the immune system against infections. The presentation of an article on Chronic Bronchitis Symptoms plays an important role in getting the reader interested in reading it. This is the reason for this presentation, which has gotten you interested in reading it!

[size=large][b]What Happens During AECB?[/b][/size][hr]During an AECB, the already narrower-than-normal air passageways in the lungs become even narrower, and even more and thicker mucous is secreted. This will cause breathing to become even more difficult. This may be accompanied by a fever, chills, and feeling weak in the knees. If the sudden acute exacerbation is due to bacterial infection, the mucus coughed up during expectoration may be speckled with blood, or colored a brighter than normal yellow or green. If the individual is suffering from fever, and has discovered blood in their mucus, there is a good chance the doctor will take a chest x-ray to make sure that pneumonia is not the underlying cause of the symptoms. It is rather interesting to note that people like reading about Bronchitis if they are presented in an easy and clear way. The presentation of an article too is important for one to entice people to read it!

Bronchitis is better understood if one knows what is the anatomy of the respiratory system, especially the airways. These are air passages. The throat and the mouth are the beginning of the airway system, then come the bronchi, bronchioles and last the alveoli, which healp the oxygen get into your bloodstream.

[list][*]There is not very much material on cases of bronchitis in children, because of the fact that there are not many things to say.[*]The cause of the bronchitis is almost always a virus and there are no bronchitis complications when children are involved.[*]They will experience a lot of coughing when suffering from bronchitis, but children recover on their own from bronchitis.[*]The same viruses that give a child a runny nose are also responsible for bronchitis.[*]So in cases of bronchitis in children there is not much to do to prevent it.[*]What is done to prevent a cold, a flu can also be done in cases of bronchitis.

Children are more affected by infections of those parts, including bronchitis. In the majority of children, bronchitis is the cause of a viral infection. The treatment in such cases of bronchitis should only be rest, plenty of fluid and a lot of love. The reason why many doctors prescribe antibiotics in cases of bronchitis in children is not already known. Antibiotics are known for treating a bacteria, but in almost ninety of the bronchitis chest hurts is not the case. A viral infection is the cause of bronchitis, not a bacteria. In adults, especially the one that smoke, things are a little different. Because of the smoke, their bronchi are already damaged and a bronchitis due to a bacteria infection is more probable. Even in these cases, bronchitis will not be treated with antibiotics until you have coughed for at least one to two weeks. So in children, antibiotics should not be a treatment for bronchitis. We needed lots of concentration while writing on Bronchitis as the matter we had collected was very specific and important.
