Pulmonary Fibrosis symptoms explained
Вставка

- Explaining the causes for the most common symptoms patients experience when having pulmonary fibrosis: breathlessness and cough.
Both shortness of breath and coughing can be caused directly by the pulmonary fibrosis (lung scarring). However, these symptoms can also be linked to other causes as well, which sometimes require separate treatments. For example, cough may be also related to untreated acid reflux, postnasal drip, asthma etc. Breathlessness may be linked to heart failure, pulmonary hypertension or blood clots causing a pulmonary embolism.
Treating symptoms in pulmonary fibrosis generally requires a holistic approach, where several conditions need to be treated at the same time.
I encourage you to talk to your healthcare team about all your medical problems and how they tie in to pulmonary fibrosis care in your case.

Hell0 Dr. Stefan.. thank you s0 much. I d0 have pulmonary fibr0sis a year frm n0w.. can i p0ssibly travel by plane if necessary?
I had my first covid infection 2 years ago and since them 3 more covid infections. Since my first infection I had breathing issues which the doctors identified as pulmonary hyperinflation and said the bottom of my lungs became hard but it will heal. I now breathe easier which is good but since a few days ago I have been experience vibrations in my one lung when breathing in..my own research points to lung rales...what could cause this? I am not sick at all or experiencing any breathing issues, no fast heart rate ect. Just the vibrations (rales).. maybe do a video on rales?
I too would like to see you
privately Please guide us
Regards
I don't offer private consultations at the moment sorry
