respiratory disease

many disorders and diseases of the human respiratory system

Pharyngitis is an inflammation of the pharynx so that ache or pain when swallowing food or throat felt dry. This disruption is caused by bacterial or viral infection and can also be caused by too much smoking.

Pneumonia is an inflammation of the lungs where the alveoli are usually filled with fluid and excessive erythrocytes. Pneumonia is a common type of bacterial pneumonia. This disease starts with infection of alveoli, the lung membrane becomes inflamed and perforated so that fluid and erythrocytes into the alveoli. Thus alveolar fluid and erythrocytes infected. Infection is spread by bacteria from one alveolus alveolus one to another so it can spread to all lobes and even the whole lung.

Pleuritis is inflammation of the pleura (the lining of the lungs forming) because of the infection in the lungs or other organs adjacent to the lungs, resulting in excessive fluid in the pleura. The presence of excessive fluid in the pleural causing the patient will feel chest pain when breathing.

Cold is an upper respiratory disorder caused by viral infection. Cold causes nasal congestion, runny nose running and sneezing, and itchy throat
Lung emphysema is an excessive amount of air in the lungs. When people talk about chronic pulmonary emphysema, commonly referred to is a complex lung damage caused by tobacco smoke. Lung emphysema caused by:

Chronic infection due to cigarettes or other substances that irritate the bronchial seriously so that disrupt the normal defense mechanism of the respiratory tract.
Infections due to excess mucus due to bronchial epithelium and edema.
Causing respiratory distress and expiratory air trapped lead role in the alveolus alveolus becomes tenuous.

Asthma is marked by a rigid contraction of bronchial breathing caused kesekaran. Asthma caused by bronchial hipensensitivitas (called Bronchial asthma) against foreign objects in the air. In patients under the age of 30 years, 70% of asthma caused by allergic hypersensitivity, especially hypersensitivity to plants. In older patients with 70% caused by allergies to chemicals or dust.

Diphtheria is an infectious disease caused by Corynebacterium diptherial bacteria that can cause blockage in the cavity of the pharynx (pharyngitis) and the larynx (laryngitis) slime produced by the bacteria.

Asphyxia is a disruption in the transport of oxygen to the tissue which is caused disturbance in lung function, blood vessels, or body tissues. For example alveolus filled with water due to drowning. Other disorders is karbona monoxide poisoning caused by carbon monoxide binds hemoglobin more so that the transport of oxygen into the blood is reduced.

Tuberculosis (TB) is a specific disease caused by bacteria Mycobactericum tuberculosae. This bacterium can attack any organ of the body, but is most often the lungs and bones.
Infected areas will be attacked by mikrofag, so the area is damaged and will be surrounded by fibrotic tissue to form bumps called tubercles. In the advanced stage will cause the area around the fibriotik change for change so that reduces lung function normally. This situation resulted in:

Increased respiratory muscle work that functions in part to the exchange of air the lungs.
Reduce kapasaitas vital and respiratory capacity.
Reduce respiratory membrane surface area, which will increase the thickness of the membrane, causing respiratory impairment of lung diffusion capacity.
Hypoxia is a deficiency of oxygen in the network. If severe enough, hypoxia can cause cell death. On a less serious level will result in:

The emphasis of mental activity, sometimes culminating into a coma.
Lowering the working capacity of muscle.

Acidosis caused by rising levels of carbonic acid and bicarbonate acid in the blood that can affect the respiratory system.
Flu (influenza) is a disorder of upper respiratory infections caused by viruses. Influenza causes nose was runny nose, sneezing, inflamed throat, fever, headaches and aching muscles and tired.

Cyanosis is a bluish on coolie deoksigenisasi caused by an excessive amount of hemoglobin in the blood vessels of skin, especially in the capillaries.
Bronchitis is an inflammation of the lining wall of the bronchus (bronchus) because infected by the virus, the disease causes a deep cough. In addition, bronchitis produces phlegm yellowish gray originating from the lungs.
