Why can coughing up broken ribs?

When coughing, it is necessary to know that when we have a cold and cough, it will cause strong contraction or expansion of the lungs, and the strong reaction of the lungs will pull the reactions of other tissues, and the lungs and ribs will rub against each other, which will cause pain. If you don't pay attention often, cough hard, and then hit hard, you will cough up and break your ribs. One of my neighbors had a terrible cough, and then it ended up in the tragedy of coughing up and breaking his ribs.

Therefore, it is necessary to treat the cough well.

Middle-aged and elderly people are prone to osteoporosis as they age and lose calcium. Once you encounter chronic cough such as "super cough", it is very likely that the chest ribs will be fractured due to excessive coughing, and if you delay**, it is likely to induce pneumothorax, hemothorax, etc. If the cough is severe and lasts longer than a week, you should see a doctor promptly to determine**.

Osteoporosis caused by calcium loss is a common symptom of middle-aged and elderly people, osteoporosis is also manifested in short height and hunchback, low back joint pain, weakened mobility, sensitivity to cold, and a small injury can easily cause fractures, etc., so the part of the body maintenance of middle-aged and elderly people can not be ignored is to ensure adequate calcium intake, exercise more, and prevent falling.

Can you cough up your ribs? In fact, this situation is not uncommon. When coughing, the human body goes through the process of inhaling, closing the glottis, exhaling, and suddenly opening the glottis, which promotes the expulsion of foreign bodies and secretions in the trachea.

During this process, the pressure in the chest cavity and lungs increases, which increases the pressure on the ribs, which can lead to rib fractures in some people.

Many people are afraid of coughing and choose to hold their cough, which leads to a large amount of sputum accumulation, which will cause the germs to multiply in the long run, which will aggravate the condition, and the cough will not recover quickly. Then the cough will get worse and worse, and then the damage to the body will also increase. Then a cough causes the lungs to contract or expand strongly, and the strong reaction of the lungs will also pull the reaction of other tissues, and then it is very likely to hurt the ribs. ‍‍

People who cough particularly violently are more common and need to be taken seriously. Some people who have a foreign body sensation or itch in their throat tend to cough violently and continuously, and this behavior is bound to increase the pressure on the chest cavity and cause a huge impact on the ribs. Therefore, it is best to use a slightly squatting posture when coughing repeatedly or violently, and pressing the chest pain caused by coughing with your hands can also have a certain preventive effect.

Coughing too hard and too hard, a cough causes the lungs to contract or expand strongly, and the strong reaction of the lungs will also pull the reactions of other tissues, such as the lungs and ribs rubbing against each other, which can cause pain.

Because when people cough, they will exert their strength all over the body, and sometimes this gas emitted from the lungs, a momentary force, may cause broken ribs, so people must pay attention to the way when coughing, do not use too much force.

For middle-aged and elderly people, with the increase of bone age, bone will degenerate to varying degrees, and the fragility of bone will also increase. Coughing, falling, lifting heavy objects, etc. are all causes of bone fractures in people with osteoporosis. In daily life, middle-aged and elderly people should do more outdoor exercise, receive sun exposure, control the intake of acidic substances, and reasonably supplement calcium.

When coughing, the whole body will have strength in the lungs, and the pressure is too high, so this phenomenon will occur.

This is due to muscle mutations, don't make a fuss.

Coughing will cut off the ribs may have a certain relationship with age factors, and the possibility of fatigue fractures cannot be ruled out, which can be improved according to the relevant **.

If the rib fracture is caused by coughing, it is necessary to suspect whether the rib fracture is due to a pathological fracture. Pathological fracture is secondary to other diseases, such as bone metastases or tumors of the ribs themselves, such as bone cysts and osteoid osteomas, when the ribs will have a reduced ability to resist external forces, and rib fractures will occur under the action of minor external forces.

1. Age factor:

If the elderly people cough up the ribs when coughing, it is usually caused by rib osteoporosis, because when osteoporosis occurs, it is easy to cause the bone toughness and firmness of the rib area to weaken, and when coughing hard, it usually causes the intercostal muscles to overstretch the ribs, resulting in rib fractures.

2. Fatigue fractures

Fatigue fracture is usually caused by the continuous stretching and compression of the bone by the reverse orange difference, and the local bone is slightly damaged, and eventually the skin will develop into a complete fracture early, and the fatigue fracture is usually the result of accumulation after the microbone injury, which may be caused by the repeated stretching of the rib area due to the cough that lasts for too long, and can be appropriately taken with antitussive drugs to reduce cough, such as dextromethorphan hydrobromide tablets, compound licorice tablets, etc., for rib fractures can be fixed with plaster, Rib strap fixation**.

The bone with the loose is too powerful, I didn't find it. If there is no grandson to answer the injury, it must be that he coughs it up and breaks it, then he sells wisdom. To distinguish between wind cold, wind heat or epidemic, it is a new museum.

Severe coughing can cause rib fractures. After a rib fracture has occurred, it is necessary to fix the fracture site with your hand when coughing to avoid aggravating the fracture and reducing pain.

Long-term bed rest can lead to thick sputum that is difficult to drain, causing pneumonia. Therefore, drink plenty of water, avoid sweets, and get out of bed appropriately. Eat more fruits and vegetables to get enough nutrients.

If it is severe, it will be inhaled by nebulization to dilute the sputum. It can also be used to treat the area with infrared baking lamps to promote swelling.

Best wishes to you**.
