Video transcript:
Today I will be talking about how pneumonia symptoms develop in adult patients. In this video, I am not talking to my fellow health care providers but I am talking directly to you- the patient. You may be a patient concerned about symptoms or pneumonia or you may have a friend or family member who you think may have symptoms of pneumonia. This video is for you. You do not need any medical background to understand what I am going to explain. I will not be using any medical terms.###First off, let me tell you there are no universal symptoms of pneumonia that can apply to all patients. Symptoms of pneumonia depend on the specific situation of the individual patient having pneumonia. That is why instead of listing a set of symptoms just like other medical websites do, I will tell you how pneumonia symptoms develop in our body. Once you understand that, you can predict which patient may have what kind of symptoms.You have to learn a little about how we breathe to understand pneumonia.
When we breathe air in, it goes down from our nose into our throat down into our air pipes. The air pipes divide and take the air down into our 2 lungs. Each lung is like a bag of small air bubbles. Each bubble is connected by small pipes and these small pipes are connected to larger pipes. Eventually the lager pipes connect to the two branches of the air pipe. When we take air in, all these bubbles expand. When we breathe the air out, these bubbles partially collapse. This is how air moves in and out of the lungs as we breathe. In these bubbles, there are blood vessels with very thin walls. They capture the oxygen in the blood and give out carbon-dioxide. Then the blood carries oxygen to all over our body.
Now you understand what lungs are how how we breathe with them. Pneumonia is simply an infection of the lungs. When bugs get into the lungs, they settle down deep inside. They cause irritation of the nerves in these small air tubes. They cause inflammation or swelling of the lungs and they produce pus like gunky liquid that can fill up these delicate small air bubbles. This irritation can cause cough and pain with breathing. The swelling can cause difficulty breathing. The fluid in the bubbles can prevent the blood vessels from being able to pick up oxygen from the bubble.This can cause low levels of oxygen in the blood. These bugs can also produce toxins that can travel into the blood and cause fevers, chills, weakness and sometimes confusion.
Having said that, do not think that all patients with pneumonia have all of those symptoms I just mentioned. The exact symptom in an patient depends on the unique situation. If someone has a very healthy and elastic lungs their nerves are very sensitive. They may have bad cough as soon as the bug gets there and start coughing those up. The only symptoms they may have could be cough and pain in the chest with cough. If someone has damaged and scarred lungs, the nerves may not be that sensitive and they may not have much cough to start with. They probably have the pneumonia spread to a larger area of the lungs even before they start to have any symptoms. Their symptoms may be more from swelling of lungs than from irritation. They may only have symptoms of shortness of breath. Again, in patients with years of smoking, they may have saggy big lungs. In those patients the first symptom may be from low oxygen in the blood as they do not have much lung capacity or lung reserve.
This way, when you understand the basic mechanism of how pneumonia causes symptoms, you can put the unique symptoms of a patient together and see it it fits the pattern. This is the correct way to learn about pneumonia symptoms in adults. If you have any questions, leave a comment and I will talk about those in my future videos. Thanks for listening.

Can you get pneumonia from tonsillitis? I had really nasty tonsillitis that only lasted a day and a half then I felt fine just tired.the tiredness has been getting worse over the last week and I've been coughing up a very small amount of yellow mucus for a few days now, I'm hardly coughing though and no runny nose.however my mum has pneumonia after having a sore throat and no runny nose ect so now I wonder.I had antibiotics from the dr but she said only take them if you're not getting better after 3 days so I didn't-should I take them?
informative doc!!!!
I have also pneumonia. I wish you and me all the best. Let's hope we will soon be cured ! Succes !

Very informative Video.

Thank u doc. For ur information about pneomonia
I subcribed u for the the next infor mation God bless u always doc.
Wait..let me go get my pillow and blanket
Jesus 😅😅😅 so correct
ha ha ha
Hahahaha true very slow watch it in 2x speed...
Id rather have it slow and understandable, than like most pple answering customer service... Cant understan a thing.
LMAO and it doesn't help that I'm exhausted from lack of sleep due to pneumonia
Thank u sir,, worth of information
i really like the way you explain disease, this way I don't have to memorize a long list of symptoms of particular disease :) can you make more videos on COPD please?
I’ve gotta figure out what’s wrong with me myself because I’ve been to the doctor twice and they’ve just given me covid tests and not actually helped me with my cough
Same here, couldn't even get an actual exam. Just covid test.
Edit : Idk if this will help since its been two months but:
What?! They need to prescribe to you some medicine or antibiotics.
Get some cough syrup/ cough suppressant for nigh time so you can sleep and some mucus clearing cough syrup or meds (if you have a congested chest).
But most importantly get the antibiotics to actually get rid of the bacteria
For doctors nowadays there are no illnesses anymore just covid
The same thing is happening to me now. It's been two weeks and I still feel horrid.
@@signoracarter7024 i had to go multiple times before I finally got diagnosed with pneumonia. I had covid which caused my pneumonia making it even harder to get diagnosed. All they kept saying was covid causes chest pain and a cough. Its covid blah blah blah. I finally couldn't sleep and got insane chest pain and had to argue my way into a diagnosis. The nurse treated my like a liar and talked down to me in a condescending way. My advice. Be persistent and firm and don't back down. Just don't yell or curse or they'll kick you out of the hospital. I also never got the vaccine and basically got treated like a non human entity.
Hello Doctor, I am a computer science student i am working on pneumonia detection using xrays images. Can you guide me what are the biological things needs to know.
does any other things related to the imaged test is there to detect.
Please feel free to contact me. It will be very help full for all.
Why do I have to go back to work after 3 weeks. Plus there's a lot of dust in my work place. I've to go for chest xray and scans again in 6-8. Weeks 8-10yrs weeks
can you have the infection without a cough , but tight chest and shortness of breath , cause I started having breathing issues and a sore chest a few months ago , they said it might be an infection? x
Generally a lung infection will cause pleurisy(fluid build up) and that will lead to potential lung pain and coughing. This is commonly seen with viral and bacterial infections. An inhaler and certain antibiotics are usually the first line of treatment.
hi sir,
my mom is suffering from pneumonia with jaundice belurabin 12 and past 13 yr she is having asthma in such circumstances what preventive measures are required and what are the circumstances can be happen.

If ones lungs have hurt for three days, while having either an asthma attack or anxiety attack during the first two days, is it bronchitis, pneumonia or TB? A fever or cough has not accompanied the symptoms above. The only time the lungs have ever hurt prior was during childhood due to pneumonia and environmental asthma that is rare and basically, nonexistent for the last two years excluding the two days mentioned.Thank you in advance for your thoughts and recommendations. Great presentation!
Cure??
Thank you Doctor for explaining. I have pneumonia and it hurts my chest when I cough
You can get antibiotics that get rid
Of it. I have it currently and they are helping me alot
Tania Tovar how did you get it?
been a while, so hope you're better now :)
mistertexaz yes, this was a year ago and it lasted 4 months. I THINK I got it because at my old job, they wouldn't turn the heater on in the winter. So I sat at a computer cold for 8 hours a day, (I wasn't the only one that either got pneumonia or bronchitis at that job) it started out with a cold and it just got worse. I have never been that sick in my life, but I'm thankful that I have been healthy since.
I have it now thank God my meds are helping! My appetite is slowly coming back. So I’m grateful for that but I can’t spit up anything 😑
Which medicine you used in pneumonia when it hurts your chest ??plz tell me
I got pneumonia from covid19 and got prescribed medications,its so bad I get high fever and sweat profusely and cant even breath well
Thanks Dr but I wish to asked what about head ache when coughing
Thank you for posting this video very educational

Sir my mother is suffering from lung infection but nothing is coming in culture or AFB test. What should I do.
Doctors of my state is unable to catch what kind of infection she is having.
If cough not coming out what can we do
How do you diagnose pneumonia?
I have had Pneumonia over 2 years ago just by getting the milk out the fridge hurting back ribs, right lung started not been able to breathe properly coughing blood, Now ive got it again just by hurting my left front ribs, once the fluid goes away do you always have scar tissue in the lungs ?? My right lung as scar tissue, so would that happened again with my left lung now aswell ???
What is a early symptom.
May i have to soiling underd the chest and not sleeping to one side and now days chest pain and sone of cough
Does water in the lungs the causes of pneumonia and swelling of feet?
my mum as a Chest infection with breathing difficulties
i was recently released from the hospital due to pneumonia. also, a year ago i was in another hospital for the same symptoms such as coughing, chest pain, and fever. i had a full check up and turns out i had acid reflux, which I've been suffering from it all my life. now, i just found out from my most recent visit that i have exceptionally small lungs. my right one is the length of about 3.5 ribs, and the left is abouy 5 ribs. Is this normal? i mean, I've been to 2 other hospitals and they never mentioned it. I'm wondering if this has something to do with a constant cough I've been having for year's? I don't smoke or don't drink. it become really uncomfortable being around people. Wondering if because of the size of lungs i have, is this something that i just have to live with, always getting pneumonia, coughing, shortness of breath?
Sergio Rivera and
please write medicine after explanation.
What are the precautions do you have to take after a bout of pneumonia so that it doesn't occur again. You have explained very well

Thanks for sharing doc.
I'll be dead before he finishes
Debra Zz :what the hell
Lol
Debra Zz I should not laugh
Kayla Nguyen Thats not true. If left untreated some kinds of pneumonia can cause fatal complications. Remember, pneumonia involves your lungs filling with fluid. If your lungs are full of fluid, the oxygen in your blood will drop and eventually that causes all kinds of complications. Before the advent of penicillin, pneumonia was very often fatal especially to children and the elderly. Some forms of pneumonia more dangerous than others. For example, full blown Legionnaires' disease requires hospitalization. If you dont seek medical help with this particular form of pneumonia it wont be good for you. It is known to kill people untreated. There are lots and lots of different kinds of pneumonia. Some are more common example: Streptococcus pneumonia and some are less common example: legionnaires disease. Because there are lots of different kinds of pneumonia, and some of the pathogens can cause very very severe pneumonia, it is important to see a doctor if you think you have it. Better safe than sorry.
God seriously
My Freind Have The Same Symptoms Doctor What Should I Do Please Suggest Me
thank u so much. . can u do the same with pneomonia in children
Doc, what if the person is only experiencing chest pain for months
I hve pneumonia and im loosing wieght since i hve it i always coughing low breath cant walk in stairs....what i do i need your opinion plsss...
Ok. I have pneumonia right now and I know this will help you. If you didn't already, go to a hospital and they will probably give you an IV bag so you can get fluids and they will also probably hive you IV antibiotics. Then they might prescribe you with an antibiotic and that will help too. A few more things that will help are drinking a ton of water, getting a lot of rest and if you have one, use a Puffer/Inhaler. That will help out a lot and one more thing is that it will stay for about 5-6 months.
My dad also has it and he is getting so skinny he was in the hospital for like 1 week man it sucks he had trouble breathing he is out now and trying to recover. With some pill antibiotics
Are still alive?
@@adriabeneteau7792 Really?? Why does it take so long to get rid of pneumonia?
Good
Man I just learned I have NO patience😂not sure about the phenomena
I have had pneumonia going on almost two weeks. I went to the hospital, got put on antibiotics and finished them a few days ago. I seem to have a low fever (99 to about 100.5) for the last few days. Went back to my doc yesterday and he gave me more antibiotics to start again. But still, I have this small fever that won't go away. I'm so tired of it, it's killing me. I feel way better this week than last but why in the hell do I have this small fever?
Did it get better? I think I've had it for two weeks now too. This fever is the most uncomfortable thing ever.
cuda861 I work in urgent care. 99-100.5 is actually considered a low grade fever. 800 mg ibuprofen or Tylenol can actually help relieve those symptoms. If it 102.00 or higher then that’s when we consider it an actual fever. Hope all is well since then. 😊☺️❤️❤️❤️Sorry you got sick. I’m dealing with pneumonia (bacterial) now. 😑
Hi, please reply. Is it get better? My husband have same symptoms since last 2 weeks
@@madhurijoshi7867 It took at least a month for the serious symptoms to go away, probably at least another 2 months to be somewhat normal. I also had a collapsed lung that complicated everything.
I've had pneumonia two times before, and I'm only 13,I clicked this because I think I have it again
@suraj tamang lmaoooo this is so old, I’m fine now trust me🤣🤣

I'm pretty sure I have pneumonia. I am running a fever of 101, I have chills, my chest really hurts to breathe and coughing makes me grasp my chest from pain. I also have brownish green phlegm....think I'll hit the Saturday clinic today. Unfortunately, it's an hour away....don't know if I can drive myself....I am very weak. I thought it was just another Lupus flare.....
This is good, but I think it's imperative for you Doctor, to deferitiate between pneumonia and bronchitis because both look a lot alike and you don't want people freaking out when they have Bronchitis, and they think they have Pneumonia.
oh OK!
Do you have back pain when you got pneumonia?
I have so much ache at my back and make me that sick and like chill,even recovery time I'm now two in three months since the doctor told me I have pneumonia i still have this
Same I started with covid and ended with pneumonia my chest hurts as if I swallow a candy and it’s just stuck mid chest but I rarely cough
@@thtdamn5.043 Do you get shoulder pain when walking? Shortness of breath or finding it hard to breathe? Not sure if i have this

Is acid reflux & gassy birps are signs of pneumonia coz I felt it before I diagnose for pneumonia 6 months back & now I am feeling same & having minor pain in upper abdomen which I was also felt before
How does time taken 95% water in lungs please reply me 🙏
Can seee pneumonia on x rays ????
same question.
How can you make sure that all of the infection is gone?
i had pnemonia, totally sucks, layed in bed for 2 weeks, couldn't even turn without a pain in my lungs. Fever 38-41 Celsius (99-104 farenheit)

Just a word of warning to anyone that has this, avoid caffeine.
Why?
@@alansumabong5327 Caffeine obviously raises heart rate, making your body work harder to breathe. Pnemonia at the same time is making your body work harder to breathe also. The same applies to COVID-19.
why its pain on upper part of right chest?is it symptoms of nemonia sir
can you have the infection without a cough , but tight chest and shortness of breath , cause I started having breathing issues and a sore chest a few months ago , they said it might be an infection?and dry cough or soilling of right side under the chest and iam not lying or sleeping to onside fulfill the waer so as me feeling what about the cause pnuemonia or other disease ?

Thank you for such an easy explanation, I have it now and my chest hurts and my body aches...I didn't think I had pneumonia I thought it was bronchitis...can u get pneumonia from smoking e cigarettes..I haven't smoked a real cig in 18 years, but I have been smoking an ecig for maybe 4 years...
I don't smoke, I don't take alcohol and it started after I visited the sick at the hospital
Thanking to the god.. I am little week in English... And skip this vedio in very begening...
thank you ...doc. ..but how pneaumonia spread doc??? i mean is pneaumonia is transmitted in air ? or what?
Rose Ann Misa, pneumonia alone can't be transmitted. You get it as result of something; like a cold, viral or bacterial.
Pneumonia is the condition. It is caused by many differnt kinds of pathogens (far too many to list). Some of these pathogens are communicable (can be spread) some arent. The most common kinds of pathogens that cause pneumonia are communicable though. The bacteria that causes strep throat is a very common one. It spreads easily from person to person, and if the infection gets bad enough it can spread to other parts of the body (not just your lungs) which is obviously very, very bad and if that happens you need to see a doctor right away.
Is he saying bugs at 2:45 and 3:30???
What I don't understand is, the most important tool to expel the 'bugs' is rendered completely useless during pneumonia. My abdominal wall is so, so painful it so hurts to even pretend to cough.
+zinfer1 Same thing happened to me....hurt like crazy...never thought I'd get pneumonia, of course I didn't really know what it was. It would have surely killed me, never been so sick.
did you guys ever cure or rid of pneumonia? I'm in sick need of help with pain. any info helps

Germs, bacteria, bugs.
I have cough and thummulu
Holy smokes. Get to it already!
