Inflammation: symptoms and treatment with folk remedies
Article articles:
Lung inflammation is a very common disease, for example, in the US, about 3 million people suffer from the disease every year. In Russia, a million people suffer from pneumonia per year, which means that it is not as easy to prevent a disease as it might seem. Although modern medicine has advanced quite strongly in recent years, pneumonia still poses a serious danger to people. A year from pneumonia, 5% of people die, which makes pneumonia one of the most terrible diseases. In Russia, it is considered the sixth in terms of mortality, which is why you can not delay treatment for later. If you feel the minimum symptoms of the disease - contact the therapist.
It is not possible to say for sure why pneumonia develops. During the disease, the body is affected by pathogenic bacteria: staphylococci, streptococci, Pfeiffer's wand, proteus, Klebsiella, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, hemophilic rod, fungi and Legionella. Usually the body affects several viruses at once, which form viral-bacterial associations. Because of pneumonia, new bacteria were discovered - bacteroids, which affect the oral cavity and form a pathogenic microflora. Hospital pneumonias appear due to acinobacteria, pneumocystitis, branhamella, asperilla, aeromonas and other bacterial pathogens. They can also cause lung pneumonia. Basically, the disease appears due to chemical and physical pathogens, for example, when the lungs are adversely affected by carbon dioxide. Because of hypothermia or strong warming of the lungs, inflammation may appear, but more often it develops together with the effect of infection.
The disease develops due to allergic reactions in the lung tissue or the influence of several diseases, for example, interstitial pneumonia, when the connection of the lung tissue is disrupted. Bacteria penetrate the lungs through lymphogenous, bronchogenic and haematogenic pathways, most often through the upper respiratory tract. Chances for the disease increase if there is a chronic or acute lung injury: acute bronchitis or brouhatazy. The immune system can not cope with the virus due to a violation of protective mechanisms, a disease of humoral immunity appears.
Bacteria quickly adapt to the lungs and live in them for a very long time, they multiply inside the alveoli, and the rate of reproduction depends on aspiration and connection with the mucosa of the upper respiratory tract. Basically, the connection with the tissue is provoked by changes in temperature in the lungs, for example, by too low a temperature. After a while, there is a swollen fluid in which the bacteria can multiply very quickly. This causes a decrease in immunity within the lungs, and damage to lung tissue due to a reaction to allergens and antigenic material. The appearance of the virus provokes pain in the lungs and a strong cough, infection of the upper respiratory tract occurs, and then a deep infection of bacterial lobar and focal pneumonia. But over time, bactericidal activity decreases, so during the second week there are symptoms of the disease.
Deep infection leads to acute pneumonia, but if left untreated, the disease goes to a chronic stage. This is due to the fact that resorption slows or stops, and exudate inside the lungs provokes pneumosclerosis, which causes inflammatory-cellular changes inside the interstitial tissue. Due to this, the immunological system can not cope with the disease, there is plasma cell and lymphocyte infiltration. The disease goes to the chronic stage due to immunological disorders, which are provoked by a repeated respiratory infection or an infection of the upper respiratory tract, for example, sinusitis or tonsillitis. A similar disorder can occur in people with diabetes, as well as those who abuse alcohol, as it disrupts the metabolism in the lung tissue.
Initially, a person can feel discomfort in the lungs, a weak cough and sputum discharge. Further, the cough becomes heavy and persistent, and it does not bring any relief. There is pain in the right side and an increase in body temperature to a maximum of 40 degrees. The working capacity decreases, there is a desire to lie down, but these symptoms are typical for influenza and ARVI.Over time, the disease penetrates deeper, and the chances of a quick cure are greatly reduced.
There may be pain in the chest, which is difficult to associate with a cough and temperature. Pain is easy and very strong. The usual superficial pain can be felt with inflammation of the intercostal muscles, and it is felt during a deep inspiration. If the pain is very severe, it indicates inflammation of the lung tissue, as well as its deformity. Often, severe pain occurs during coughing. Also, pain can be felt inside the abdomen, but it happens rarely when the inflammation reaches the lower parts of the lungs. This is due to inflammation of the diaphragmatic pleurae. The presence of a disease can be evidence of a shortness of breath. But to ascertain pneumonia is still very difficult, since it arises in diseases of the heart.
It's very difficult to notice the appearance of pneumonia in a young child. The disease appears most often in weakened children who have already had hypertrophy, rickets or anemia. Very often, inflammation occurs in premature infants, and in this case it is much more difficult to recover. At the slightest symptoms of the disease you need to see a doctor, since the absence of treatment can lead to death. Even if the child has the flu, you should immediately go to the doctor, because other diseases, for example, acute bronchitis or pneumonia, can develop on his background.
Parents rarely pay attention to the temperature of the child, but in the case of pneumonia, the temperature should be treated much more closely. With the disease, the temperature can rise by only one degree, but the child will have other disorders: regurgitation after eating, indigestion, coughing, blueing of the mouth, vomiting and so on. Pneumonia disrupts the absorption of food in a child, if you notice one of these symptoms - contact the pediatrician, since the treatment can not be delayed for a second.
Treat a serious illness like pneumonia in the home, but not in all cases. If the disease is very troubling you - consult a doctor, the treatment will be in the hospital, but guaranteed to give a result. If you do not want to go to the doctor, you need to comply with bed rest and refrain from taking chemicals, for example, to limit the use of salt, which delays water in the body. It is necessary to saturate the body with useful vitamins A and C. The room needs to be ventilated periodically, otherwise the bacteria will accumulate and only complicate the disease. When you feel relieved, take exercise therapy and gymnastics for lung development, periodically walk in the fresh air. The doctor can prescribe drugs for you, for example, antimicrobials that fight the cause of the disease. Never engage in self-medication and do not prescribe drugs after studying the instructions on the Internet, this will only complicate the disease and transfer it into a chronic stage. Below we describe a few folk recipes for the treatment of pneumonia.
Any antibiotic is sold only on prescription, so no matter how you want to prescribe your own treatment - it's impossible. You can not prescribe these drugs yourself, for this you need to understand the pharmaceutics and the course of diseases. Before appointment, the physiological features of the disease and the general state of human health are taken into account. Antibiotics in the treatment of pneumonia are very relevant, but quickly addictive. The most commonly prescribed penicillin drugs: Augmentin, Amoxiclav, Amoxicillin and Ampicillin. But many people are allergic to these drugs, so they prescribe other antibiotics.
In the presence of an allergy prescribe drugs from the group of fluoroquinols. These include the following drugs: Moximak, Moxifloxacin, Levofloxacin and Avelox. If bacteria appear in the appearance of pneumonia, which are resistant to penicillin antibiotics, these drugs will be prescribed to you.
If the disease has passed into a chronic stage, appoint macrolides and cephalosporins. To drugs cephalosporins include Zinnat, Cefuroxime, Aksetin and Zinatsef. The most effective microlide preparations are: Chemomycin, Azithromycin, Azitrox and Summed.
Do not forget that the duration of treatment and the dosage of antibiotics is prescribed by the attending physician depending on the severity of the disease. Treatment is complex, select immunomodulators, which increase immunity and resistance to bacteria. For example, such drugs include Darinat. It increases the defenses of the body and accelerates recovery after the disease. When all symptoms of the disease disappear and the infection recedes - prescribe respiratory gymnastics and physical education to fix the result and restore the upper respiratory tract.
