Patient's question:
Without knowing that he had a high fever, he implemented the activity, and also broke out in a sweat, which resulted in pulmonary emphysema. What is pulmonary emphysema?Doctor's answer:
Emphysema is an irreversible chronic respiratory system disease that causes expiratory dyspnea due to various reasons leading to increased elastic recoil of alveoli, excessive spindle shape of terminal small airways, and resulting in reduced lung volume. It is generally secondary to chronic bronchitis. The main treatment for emphysema focuses on prevention. Active prevention of upper respiratory tract infections is crucial, and it is recommended to implement low-flow, low-concentration home oxygen therapy at home.
