Chronic bronchitis will develop into emphysema?

Hello everyone, I am Gao Jinzhu, an expert from the Department of Traditional Chinese Medicine. I met a patient and asked me about this question yesterday. Today I agree to tell you!Will chronic bronchitis develop lung swelling?

Chronic bronchitis, it forms an increase in secretions in a airway, similar to garbage on both sides of an alley, which makes the lumen narrow.Those who pass through the bronchial can lose its normal elasticity.

In this case, one is the increase of the residual gas of each alveoli, and many alveolar residual gas volume increases at the same time.Then it will cause the patient's exhalation per minute significantly. When the airflow is overly blocked, some of the residual gas volume cannot be discharged. Over time, the alveolar swelling will be caused.It was formed a lung emphysema.

So do n’t drag the disease. If you find discomfort, you can treat it in time. I hope today ’s sharing will be helpful to you!If you don’t understand, you can leave a message below ~
