It will go on their own about a week or two.

:: Pneumonia (pronounced: Noo-mo-Nyuh). In inflamed lungs due to infection and cause pain, it causes pneumonia. With bacterial, viral, fungi or other toxic substances reach the lung infection and inflammation cause the person concerned gets pneumonia. When a person has pneumonia, lung tissue can fill with pus and other liquids, making it difficult for oxygen in the air bags light to reach the blood. With pneumonia, a person may be shortness of breath and cough and fever are. Often pneumonia begins after upper respiratory tract infection (infection of the throat and nose). When this happens, symptoms of pneumonia begin after2 or 3 days in a cold or sore throat. Pneumonia is of two kinds: - In the early stages of labor pneumonia, any share of assembling lings infected. It is rare in developed countries. If Broncho pneumonia or bronchi and bronchioles becomes inflamed and will cover areas of inflammation in the lung tissue. Defining Pneumonia by Origin pneumonia infections often divided into two categories that can help predict the organisms that are most likely culprits. Unsafe (contract pneumonia out of hospital). Pneumonia in this situation often follows a viral respiratory infection. It affects about 4 million adults every year. It is likely caused by pneumococcus


,


The most common pneumonia bacteria. Other organisms such as atypical bacteria called


Chlamydia and Mycoplasma pneumonia are common causes of pneumonia. Hospital of pneumonia. Pneumonia that is contracted in the hospital is called nosocomial pneumonia. Hospital patients are particularly vulnerable to gram-negative bacteria and staphylococci, which can be very dangerous. The duration of treatment of pneumonia, most types of bacterial pneumonia can be resolved within 1 to 2 weeks. Viral pneumonia may last longer. Mycoplasma pneumonia may take 4 to 6 weeks to completely resolve. How serious is pneumonia? At 1. 2 million people hospitalized each year from pneumonia, which is the third most common cause of hospitalization (number of births for the first and heart disease is strattera without prescritpion the second). Although the majority of pneumonias respond well to treatment, the infection can be a very serious problem. However, influenza, pneumonia is the sixth leading cause of death in the United States and is the leading cause of death from infections. Prospects for high-risk


Who will get pneumonia? Hospitalized patients. For patients who require hospitalization for pneumonia, the mortality rate from 10% to 25%. If pneumonia develops in patients already hospitalized in other terms, the mortality rate higher. They range from 50% to 70% or more in women than in men. Older people. Mature have lower survival rates, especially with other medical problems. (Even when older people recover from pneumonia, they have higher than normal mortality rate over the next few years).


Very young children. About 20% of stillbirths and early deaths are infant mortality from pneumonia. Young children, developing pneumonia, at risk of lung disease in adulthood. Pregnant women. Pneumonia is a particular risk to pregnant women. Patients with impaired immune systems. Pneumonia is particularly serious in people with immune system disorders, including AIDS patients, in whom pneumonia causes about half of all deaths. Patients with serious diseases. This disease is also very dangerous in patients with diabetes, cirrhosis, sickle cell anemia, multiple myeloma, and in those who had their spleen removed. Rak patient during treatment is radio-or chemotherapy, because these methods make the immune system is weak. How long will it last? If planted Pneumonia bacteria, it can be cured with antibiotics for a week or 10 days. If this is due to a virus, it is not serious. Medication is not effective. It will go on their own about a week or two. But that would not be like pneumonia, it will take 2 weeks to3 for the patient to recover fully. Symptoms of rhinitis or sore throat, chills fever


In most cases, pneumonia begins with a runny nose or throat. The patient generally feels chill, shivering fever, difficulty breathing and severe chest pain. This may be accompanied by a cough with sputum pink, which can later become brownish. In young children, the disease may cause delirium and convulsions. Temperatures can rise to 40. 6 With the degree of momentum and can rise to 150 beats per minute. Frequent complication of pneumonia, pleurisy. Symptoms - Symptoms of pneumonia vary, depending on the child's age and cause pneumonia. Some common symptoms include:


in extreme cases, bluish or gray lips and nails


How to confirm pneumonia? After the X-ray chest, sputum and blood are completed, the doctor decides pneumonia due to the presence of bacteria, viruses or other reasons. Chest X-rays and other methods of imaging X-rays. X-ray of the chest, almost always taken to confirm the diagnosis of pneumonia. It can detect the following:


White area in the lung called infiltrates, which indicate infection. Complications of pneumonia, including pleural effusion (fluid around the lungs) and abscesses. Other tests Imaging. Computed tomography (CT) or MRI can be obtained in the following cases:


2 types of bacteria

If the X-ray results is not yet clear. When patients do not respond to antibiotics. When patients have complications. When patients have other serious health problems. These more sophisticated methods of imaging can help determine the presence of tissue damage, abscesses, swollen lymph nodes. They can also detect some tumors that block bronchial tubes. No image technique can determine the actual organism causing the infection. Treatment administration of paracetamol to treat fever and such minor problems. If this is due to bacteria, the doctor prescribe antibiotics


If nasal congestion, use some drops or sprays nose


If you have a dry cough, cough should be introduced. If otherwise, some expectorants should be specified. Garlic is an excellent remedy for pneumonia, if given in sufficient quantity. This reduces the temperature, pulse and respiration within forty eight hours. Pasta Garlic can also be applied topically to the chest positive results, as it is annoying and causes flushing of the skin


Rub oil of basil on the patient's chest and give internally juice 5 basil leaves mixed with a little ground black pepper at six hourly intervals. It causes sweating and relieve the patient. Carrot juice in combination with spinach or juice, or beet and cucumber juices may also be useful in pneumonia. In these combinations, 200 ml of spinach juice or 100 ml of beet and cucumber juices should be mixed with 300 ml of carrot juice to prepare 500 ml or half a liter of juice in combination. Remember that even pneumonia can be treated is a very serious disease. Do not wait to get treatment early. .
