Bronchiectasis

June 29, 2008 Posted by

A chronic condition of the lungs resulting from acute infection results in the disease called bronchiectasis. This involves the more distant bronchial tubes and consists of a tubular or saccular dilation of the terminal air channels. The copious production of mucus sputum, often pus-filled, may severely cripple a person’s efforts to speak in public, sing, or use the voice as formerly.

The above described pulmonary hygienic measures are helpful in both the control and treatment of this disease. Postural drainage, with manual clapping (percussion), are especially valuable. Many of these sufferers develop chronic changes which make long-term treatment mandatory. Lifelong adherence to a nonsmoking pattern, and a rural home location may be necessary.
