[size=4][b]Bronchitis Acute Bronchitis - How to Diagnose Chronic Bronchitis[/b][/size][hr]The term "bronchitis" is derived from two Greek words "bronchos" and "itis," which mean "windpipe" and "inflammation," respectively. True to its name, bronchitis is a respiratory disorder characterized by inflammation of the windpipe and the large and small bronchi due to bacterial or viral infection or factors such as environmental pollution or cigarette smoking.

[list][*]Dyspnea, characterised by labored breathing, interferes a lot with the sufferers' daily routine.[*]It turns out that breathing takes up all of a person's energy.[*]Subsequently, the patients loses a lot of weight because even the normal process of eating involves a major expenditure of energy.[*]Writing an article on Types Bronchitis was our foremost priority while thinking of a topic to write on.[*]This is because Types Bronchitis are interesting parts of our lives, and are needed by us.[/list]

Arterial Blood Gas (ABG) is the name of a blood test to ascertain the capacity of the lungs to supply oxygen to the body and to eliminate carbon-di-oxide from it. In addition, it helps measure the acid content of the blood. The results of one reading this composition is a good understanding on the topic of Bronchitis Treatment. So do go ahead and read this to learn more about Bronchitis Treatment. Smile

[size=medium][b]Bronchitis Diagnosis of Chronic Bronchitis.[/b][/size]



[size=large][b]Recognizing Chronic Bronchitis[/b][/size][hr]If the patient coughs and expels sputum for about three months in a year for two consecutive years, the patient might be suffering from chronic bronchitis. Chronic bronchitis is also characterized by excessive production of mucus, cough, and dysnea, or difficulties in breathing while exerting oneself physically. Remember that it is very important to have a disciplined mode of writing when writing. This is because it is difficult to complete something started if there is no discipline in writing especially when writing on Chronic Bronchitis Patient.

[list][*]Chronic bronchitis usually lasts throughout life, and treatment is taken only to alleviate its distressing symptoms.[*]In spite of this, the patient can live a comfortable, productive life by properly managing the symptoms of this disease.[*]The disorder, though incurable, is controllable.[*]It is only through sheer determination that we were able to complete this composition on Types Bronchitis.[*]Determination, and regular time table for writing helps in writing essays, reports and articles.[/list]

These symptoms might be similar to the symptoms of other respiratory disorders, which is why patients must never try to diagnose the condition on their own. Consulting a doctor is of utmost importance. It is possible to mistake chronic bronchitis for other respiratory disorders such as asthma, sinusitis, tuberculosis, pulmonary emphysema, and so on.

[size=large][b]Due to Dyspnea, Even the Slightest Exertion Will be Exhausting for the Person[/b][/size][hr]As chronic bronchitis progresses, patients experience difficulties in breathing even when they are taking rest. At this stage, patients become more susceptible to infections of all types and to respiratory insufficiencies, which pave the way for the terminal event of chronic bronchitis, acute respiratory failure. It is only because that we are rather fluent on the subject of Acute Bronchitis that we have ventured on writing something so influential on Acute Bronchitis like this! Big Grin.

Chronic bronchitis is accompanied by abnormal signs in the lungs, edema of the feet, coronary failure, and a bluish tinge on the skin and around the lips. The symptoms disappear with the passage of time and are usually followed by the development of abnormal breathing patterns. We were furnished with so many points to include while writing about Bronchitis Treatment that we were actually lost as to which to use and which to discard!

[list][*]Various Medical Tests to Diagnose Chronic Bronchitis Physicians conduct a number of tests to facilitate correct diagnose of a respiratory condition.[*]Some of the tests and examinations are:[/list]

Pulmonary function tests are done to calculate the capacity of the lungs to exchange oxygen for carbon-di-oxide. In order to conduct pulmonary function tests, doctors use peak flow monitoring (PFM) and spirometry. Spirometry is a medical tool used to determine and understand the working of the lungs while PFM is used to determine the maximum speed with which a person can exhale or inhale. PFM also assesses the ways in which the malady can be controlled.

Chronic bronchitis is the more lethal of the two types of bronchitis, that is, acute and chronic bronchitis. While acute bronchitis lasts for a short time and is chiefly caused by bacterial or viral infection, chronic bronchitis lasts much longer. It is also considered to be one of the chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), a group of respiratory diseases commonly characterized by abnormal breathing patterns.

[size=large][b]Aconite is Suitable Only in the Onset of Affection, Before the Inflammation is Localized[/b][/size][hr]Aconite may even prevent a bronchitis if taken early right away when first symptoms appear: coryza, full,hard pulse, frequent sneezing, chilliness, restless sleep. If moderate congestion, and physical weakness and indisposition appear Aconite must be supplied with Gelsemium. Ferrum phosphoricum is administered in the bronchitis of children when the cough is dry, the lungs are sore, the breathing is oppressed, has no restlessness or drowsiness secondary effects as the previous two medications. Veratrum viride is to be administered when there is high temperature, rapid pulse, the body is overheated. Big Grin.

[list][*]Sulphur Gives good results in chronic bronchitis with moist rales, persistent, profuse, thick, muco-purulent expectoration and suffocative attacks.[*]Balsam Peru and Pix liquida helps to expectorate the purulent matter.[*]In individuals who are constant catching cold Bacillinum and Arnulphy are good remedies.[*]Patience was exercised in this article on Acute Bronchitis Chronic Bronchitis.[*]Without patience, it would not have been possible to write extensively on Acute Bronchitis Chronic Bronchitis.[/list]

Belladonna If the child cries after each paroxysm of cough and the cough is spasmodic with no expectoration worse at night and on lying down with hot and moistured skin the best treatment is belladonna. In bronchitis with violent fever, with irregular breathing and fullness in the chest, the patient can't sleep and is drowsy.

[size=large][b]Antimonium Tartaricum[/b][/size][hr]Indications of Antimonium tartaricum are for young children and old people with sub-crepitant rales and wheezing breathing, superficial respiration, vomiting of mucus and food. Ipecacuanha has almost the same effects ceasing the difficulty in breathing. Baryta carbonica, Ammonium causticum, Antimonium iodatum gives accumulation of mucus in the lungs with muco-purulent expectoration. Antimonium arsenicosum is a very usefull remedy in capillary bronchitis.

Bryonia It is very usefull when the cough is very painfull and hurts the head and chest. It is rarely indicated in pure bronchitis, if the patient suffers from dyspnoea and dry cough which is even worse after a meal. Often the cough is aggravated when entering in a warm room from the cold air. When the expectoration becomes copious, thick and muco purulent we suggest Pulsatilla, but if accompanied by nausea and vomiting then give Ipecacuanha, Chelidonium is an excellent medicine in bronchitis as complication of measles. We have actually followed a certain pattern while writing on Bronchitis Complication. We have used simple words and sentences to facilitate easy understanding for the reader.

[list][*]Mercurius When the cough is troublesome in the morning and the expectoration is glutinous, tenacious we suggest that you take Kali bichromicum.[*]A raw concussive cough with watery sputum, muco-purulent saliva like with soreness of the throat is recommended mercurius.[*]Penetration into the world of Bronchitis Patient proved to be our idea in this article.[*]Read the article and see if we have succeeded in this or not![/list]

Phosphorus It is indicated in non-resistant individuals delicate, tall, phthisical subjects with constriction of the larynx, hoarseness, mucous rales, mucous sputum or purulent. The patient often feels better after sleep. Usually the complication is pneumonia. Soreness and rawness of the chest appear after taking Phosphorus. Hepar sulphur is the remedy in case of rattling, fatiguing and choking cough. It is more adequate to subacute cases. Kali carbonicum has good effects in dyspnoea, choking cough. We consider that we have only touched the perimeter of information available on Bronchitis Complication. There is still a lot more to be learnt!
