What do you need to pay attention to in a pneumothorax and how to heal?

Is it a pneumothorax or a hemopneumothorax? How serious is it?

I was tall and it was a tragedy to run downstairs one day, I didn't feel anything at the time, I just felt a little difficult to breathe, I also smoked violently to suppress it, and I waited at least three days for me to go to the hospital, I thought there was something wrong with my heart, and I went to check the heart first. Your X-ray is the same as mine, I just have a lower lung compression than yours, it belongs to a spontaneous pneumothorax, nothing to worry about, ** just go to the hospital for oxygen, infusion with anti-inflammatory drugs, and rest for a few days.

I had this disease the year before last, and I was scared at first, and then there was nothing more, just strenuous exercise, smoking or something.

Generally tall, thin people are prone to this disease, is it because God is jealous of our figure, hehe.

I've had a pneumothorax too, and I'm a little taller than you and about the same weight. Thin people are generally more susceptible to this disease. I got sick after a game of basketball.

By inpatient puncture**. Now, after a little strenuous exercise, I will feel pain on the side of the pneumothorax, and I will feel better in about a week. So I agree with the guy who said that it might be better after the alveolar removal.

1.It is best not to have strenuous exercise.

2.Spontaneous pneumothorax.

3.< 30% of pneumothorax are generally not treated, and more than 30% need to be treated: a.

Thoracentesis Thoracostometry: In order to treat the symptoms but not the root cause, spontaneous pneumothorax is generally caused by the rupture of bullae caused by a sudden increase in intrathoracic pressure such as strenuous exercise, and it is more likely to be relieved of pneumothorax symptoms alone. b.

At present, laparoscopy is generally used, and the cost is about 1w5, and the hospitalization is about 4 days, and the rate is low.

It depends on your situation to make a ** plan.

Conservative methods: thoracentesis (that is, pumping with a needle), closed drainage (opening a small opening in the chest and putting a tube to exhaust), but these are generally equal to or less than 30% compression, and the ** rate is relatively high.

There are also three types of surgery: ordinary thoracotomy (large incision, unsightly), small axillary incision, and thoracoscopy.

If there are more than a few times or CT detects that there are pulmonary bullae, the doctor recommends thoracoscopic surgery, which is a minimally invasive surgery, with a low rate, but it is not completely possible, and you should be more careful.

Of course, pneumothorax can also be absorbed on its own, but it should be relatively easy to absorb under the premise of less compression, and all kinds of exercise should be avoided as much as possible.

Sitting for a long time will not aggravate the condition! Don't Chinese medicine, my opinion is surgery**, otherwise there is a risk.

In fact, the probability of spontaneous pneumothorax is very high, with an average of more than a quarter within two years, especially for re-patients, and more than half of the chances. This is because most patients have more or less lung bubbles on the pleura, usually near the apex. Therefore, the purpose of surgery is to find out these lesions that cause pneumothorax and remove them, and add pleural adhesion as appropriate, so that the pleural cavity is completely adhesion and the pneumothorax will not recur.

Usually after surgery, we can control the ** rate to less than 5%.

The clinical management of spontaneous pneumothorax includes observation, chest tube drainage, and surgery**, with the main considerations being the degree of pneumothorax, recovery from absorption, the presence or absence of comorbidities, and the risk assessment of surgery.

Pneumothorax surgery, since 1937 to remove the bubble to avoid recurrence, no matter in the choice of surgical methods, the evolution of methods, the progress of anesthesia, and the introduction of thoracoscopy in recent years, pneumothorax surgery has been a safe, convenient, high success rate. Therefore, we sincerely recommend that patients with poor chest tube drainage, patients with pulmonary inflatability, patients with hemothorax, tension pneumothorax, or those who are inconvenient to seek immediate medical treatment due to the remote place of residence and the special nature of their work should undergo surgery** to avoid the unfortunate occurrence of physical harm and even respiratory failure in the case of acute **.

Pneumothorax can generally be divided into three types, one is closed pneumothorax, one is open pneumothorax, and one is tension pneumothorax, closed pneumothorax is generally caused by rib fractures, open pneumothorax is generally caused by some sharp objects penetrating the chest, and tension pneumothorax, caused by bronchial rupture, etc., so you must pay attention to safety at ordinary times.

The types of pneumothorax are different, ** is not the same, if it is a closed pneumothorax, a small amount of pneumothorax will generally be absorbed by itself, if a large number of it must be sent to the hospital in time**, puncture and pumping, open pneumothorax should first urgently close the wound, cover the wound with a cotton pad and other sterile things, and send it to the hospital in time**, there is also tension pneumothorax, which should be immediately discharged, so it must be sent to the hospital in time, do not do it blindly to avoid accidents.

If you must remain calm after the occurrence of pneumothorax, do not panic too much, it may cause aggravation of the disease, do not think that it will be good to rest, you should immediately send it to a regular hospital for examination, under the correct guidance of the doctor**, because if the pneumothorax drags on for a longer time, the situation will become more and more serious, and finally breathing will be particularly difficult, so you must be sent to the hospital in time.

The patient's idiopathic pneumothorax can be considered for surgery**, and the patient should cooperate with the doctor in combination with the clinical symptoms to determine the **time**. In addition, it is important to take a break after the surgery and not forget to have regular check-ups to prevent infection or adverse reactions. Maintaining a good mindset is also a must for a successful surgery.

The pneumothorax suffered by the patient is idiopathic pneumothorax, and it should be said that he should pay more attention to his behavior than ordinary pneumothorax. The first thing patients should do is to go to the local authoritative hospital for a physical examination in time, and then prescribe the right medicine according to the report after getting the examination report, according to the doctor's instructions.

Patients should do more physical exercise to enhance immunity and avoid colds, but the exercise intensity should not be too large. Communicate with family and friends and don't isolate yourself from others. Eat more fresh fruits and vegetables, breathe more fresh air, rest on time, go to bed early and wake up early.

The disease can be treated with the best methods of traditional Chinese medicine or the best methods of Western medicine, first of all, some of the best methods of Western medicine will be introduced. First of all, it is necessary to ensure that the patient is on bed rest, talk as little as possible, gasp more, and reduce the activity of the lungs, which is conducive to the absorption of gas.

In the case of severe disease or when some other drugs and methods have no effect, the surgical method can be used, but not every patient is suitable for the first method of jade surgery, such as during menstruation, cardiopulmonary insufficiency and other problems are not suitable for surgery.

Similarly, this disease can also be treated with traditional Chinese medicine, which mainly focuses on the rationality. You can boil water and drink with medicinal herbs such as angelica, white peony, and schisandra. This method has the effect of nourishing the lungs, has the effect of dissolving phlegm and relieving cough, and this method can be taken for a long time.

The purpose of pneumothorax is to promote recruitment of the affected side, elimination, and reduction. Some patients with mild symptoms can be conservative****, but most need chest decompression to help the affected lung recruitment, and a few patients need surgery**.

1.Guard**.

1) A small amount of pneumothorax, especially the first occurrence of pneumothorax, does not require special treatment, and sedation, analgesia and other drugs are given as appropriate.

2) A large number of pneumothorax or ** pneumothorax requires pleural puncture, exhaustion of air or thoracostomy to promote lung expansion as soon as possible. Some patients require surgery**.

2.Surgery**.

Pneumothorax that is ineffective in internal medicine should be operated on, mainly suitable for patients with open pneumothorax, hemopneumothorax, bilateral pneumothorax, pneumothorax, tension pneumothorax drainage failure, pulmonary insufficiency due to pleural thickening or multiple bullae on imaging.

3.First aid management of open pneumothorax.

1) Debridement and suturing of chest wall wounds; Blocks the passage of air into the chest cavity and relieves symptoms of dyspnea;

2) administering oxygen, replenishing blood volume, correcting shock;

3) Thoracostomy drainage as soon as possible; Avoid tension pneumothorax and promote lung recruitment as soon as possible;

4) When there is suspicion of intrathoracic organ injury or progressive bleeding, thoracotomy and exploratory surgery are required;

5) Give antibiotics to encourage patients to cough and expectorate, move early, and prevent infection.

4.First aid management of tension pneumothorax.

Tension pneumothorax is a critical and severe disease that can quickly cause death, and positive intrathoracic pressure should be quickly relieved to avoid serious complications, and immediate thoracentesis and exhaust should be required in case of emergency. It will be processed later.

It's not like ah, first do a flat film of the chest, if it's a pneumothorax, you can do closed drainage, but you still have to find out the reason, fundamentally, I don't know what else you feel,

You first have to figure out whether it is a pneumothorax or not, just take a film to know, according to what you said, the possibility of pneumothorax is still very small. Rather, it is a pleural problem, and there is also a problem with the intercostal nerves. It is recommended that you go to the hospital for a look.

Do you want to be spontaneous? If you observe for two days and don't get better, you should puncture and aspirate, if it is not good, you should intubate and exhaust, and if it is not good, you will have to have surgery. In general, I am a pneumothorax patient, and if I want to know more, please ask.

Trauma, inflammation, lung lesions, etc. are easy to cause, and the most important thing is to find the primary disease.

Caused by bronchial rupture, etc.

1. You have a spontaneous pneumothorax, the concept of spontaneous pneumothorax, you can search for this entry to see. There are many reasons for the occurrence of spontaneous pneumothorax, for slender people, the occurrence of spontaneous pneumothorax is related to type II alveolar cells, type II alveolar cells can form surfactant on the surface of the alveolar epithelium, which plays an important role in reducing alveolar surface tension and stabilizing alveolar size.

2. Your spontaneous pneumothorax, except for emphysema, generally has no other lesions in the lungs, so it looks that both lungs are abnormally "clean" on imaging examination. The ** of this pneumothorax is random, and it generally occurs when the pressure in the chest or abdominal cavity increases suddenly, such as coughing, breath-holding, heavy physical labor and even constipation may lead to **, sometimes even without any trigger**.

3. I think that at present, I should be conservative first, and then consider doing thoracoscopy or surgery or pleural adhesion.
