#1

[size=4][b]Bronchitis Vs Bacterial - 5 Useful Cough Facts for Chronic Bronchitis Patients[/b][/size][hr]Cough could be harmless; at the same time, it could be trying to convey a dangerous message. Only a physician will be able to unravel the mystery of a cough. For example, you will cough a lot if you have bronchitis; it is one of the symptoms of bronchitis. Knowledge about the various types and causes of a cough will help you determine the steps required to deal with cough.

[size=large][b]Types of Cough[/b][/size][hr]There are two types of cough--dry or non-productive cough and chesty or productive cough. A dry cough, which can cause a great deal of annoyance, is arid and stiff. In addition, it makes you feel tired and worn out. Usually, a bacteria or virus is responsible for a chesty cough. A chesty cough expels a lot of phlegm comprising mucus and germs from the respiratory system and, thereby, normalises the breathing pattern.

[size=large][b]You Have a Persistent Cough, Visit Your Physician[/b][/size][hr]He or she will help you determine the type of your cough. Your doctor is the best person to tell you the exact causes for your cough. In addition, a doctor is the most qualified person to teach you the best ways to prevent or treat that annoying cough. Therefore, the sooner you visit your physician, the better. Take no chances with your health!

[size=large][b]Why Do People Cough?[/b][/size][hr]A cough is due to either physiological or psychological reasons. Psychological coughing is also called "habitual coughing." Those in the medical profession call it "streruphilia." An individual suffering from this condition enjoys sneezing or coughing, which is why he or she coughs or sneezes all the time.

[i]Effects of Cough in Chronic Bronchitis Persistent, productive cough in chronic bronchitis can have the following effects: -It causes strain in the anal region and, therefore, aggravates piles.[/i]

Allergy to irritating substances such as cigarette smoke, dust, pollen, or medicinal drugs Medical conditions such as coronary disorders, ear diseases, or sinuses in the lungs Ignorance is bliss they say. However, do you find this practical when you read so much about Persistent Cough?

Quote:It can raise the pressure in your chest and paves the way to a condition called "air emphysema." 5. Controlling Cough in Chronic Bronchitis According to medical studies, chronic bronchitis is chiefly due to smoking. Therefore, quit smoking immediately and for good if you are smoker. You will be surprised how fast your breathing pattern will return to normal once you stop smoking. Saying good-bye to cigarettes will not only reduce your cough but will also give you a pair of healthy lungs. In addition, keep away from a person who is smoking; the smoke can aggravate your cough. Medical studies have shown that passive smoking has worse effects on the lungs than active smoking. Make the best use of life by learning and reading as much as possible. read about things unknown, and more about things known, like about Cough Chronic Bronchitis.

[b]On the contrary, a physiological cough is due completely to certain physiological conditions and can take place due to the following reasons: Bacterial, viral, or fungal infection leading to conditions such as common cold[/b]

[i]Persistent coughing can sometimes lead to a headache. -It causes additional strain in the stomach region, which can, in turn, lead to "scrotal sac" or hernia."[/i]

[list][*]Avoid irritants that can worsen your cough; some such irritants are chemical fumes, dust, and aerosol products.[*]If you are inevitably exposed to irritants, wear a mask to avoid them.[/list]

[size=large][b]Has Long Been Known that Smoking and Lung Cancer are Causally Linked[/b][/size][hr]After having discovered this association though, much has been made of the heightened incidence of other forms of cancer caused by of smoking. I am going to highlight the data that reiterates the claims and suggest that the evidence is not so strong for other forms of cancer being causally linked with smoking. The evidence is analysed from the mortality statistics for the UK in 2002.

Will work through the statistics because 26% of the population are smokers and so one might reasonably assume that any incidence of cancer where less than 26% of sufferers are smokers may have other more prevalent causes than smoking. There are many varieties of Bronchitis Emphysema found today. However, we have stuck to the description of only one variety to prevent confusion!

Death from cancer of the upper respiratory tract was found at a rate of 66% in smokers, nearly three times the percentage of smokers. Note though that women sufferers represented half of their cohort compared with three quarters of men, suggesting upper respiratory cancer is more likely in men than in women smokers. There is a vast ocean of knowledge connected with Chronic Bronchitis. What is included here can be considered a fraction of this knowledge!

All in all, there were over 114,000 premature deaths in 2002 from cigarette smoking, mostly from cancer, but also from heart disease and pulmonary (lung) disease. The best way to improve ones chances of not suffering from a shortened life and succumbing to one of the diseases mentioned in this article is by quitting smoking once and for all. Benefits have been clearly documented and the sooner smokers quit, the bigger the benefits of quitting become on their life expectancy. Indeed, smokers who quit before they reach thirty, statistically negate virtually all the ill health effect of smoking and can generally expect to live as long as a non-smoking contemporary. Emphysema Bronchitis are versatile as they are found in all parts and walks of life. It all depends on the way you take it.

[list][*]Emphysema is the destruction of the lung leading to loss of surface area, alveoli (air sacks in the lungs) and the loss of elasticity.[*]Chronic bronchitis manifests itself through swollen bronchii and over production of mucus within the lung.[*]It is characterised by daily coughing, bringing up sputum.[*]Both emphysema and bronchitis lead to slow, debilitating and frustrating deaths for their victims.[*]Writing on Emphysema Bronchitis proved to be a gamble to us.[*]This is because there simply seemed to be nothing to write about in the beginning of writing.[*]It was only in the process of writing did we get more and more to write on Emphysema Bronchitis.[/list]

[b]Some sources suggest that pneumonia is more likely to kill in smokers but only 17% of the 36,000 fatal pneumonia cases were found in smokers suggesting this is not the case. Big Grin[/b]

[list][*]Stomach cancer took 1,650 lives in 2002 but is found in 35% of men compared with only 11% of female smokers.[*]It is reasonable therefore to draw the same conclusion about the causes as for bladder cancer between men and women.[*]Emphysema Chronic Bronchitis play a prominent part in this composition.[*]It is with this prominence that we hope people get to know more about Emphysema Chronic Bronchitis. Smile[/list]

[i]Deaths from COPD in 2002 in the UK numbered 28,500 of which 84% were smokers demonstrating a clear link between the inhalation of tobacco smoke and the disease as is the case with lung cancer. [/i]

Pancreatic cancer is another cancer that is less prevalent in smokers than the general population. Indeed 20% of men and 26% of women dying from the disease in 2002 were smokers, suggesting parity with women and a disparity with men. It may be reasonable therefore to assume that there are other contributory factors in male pancreatic cancers. So after reading what we have mentioned here on Emphysema Bronchitis, it is up to you to provide your verdict as to what exactly it is that you find fascinating here. :o.

Finally, heart disease is the biggest single killer in the UK with over a quarter of a million deaths a year as a result of its various forms. Of all the major forms of heart disease, ischaemic heart disease, cerebrovascular disease, aortic aneurysm, myocardial degeneration and atherosclerosis, the percentage of smokers suffering from aortic aneuryism was just under 60%. All other forms of heart disease showed near 26% or below. This suggests that smoking may not be the main contributory factor but it almost certainly will have had an impact. Developing a vision on Chronic Bronchitis, we saw the need of providing some enlightenment in Chronic Bronchitis for others to learn more about Chronic Bronchitis.

[list][*]Firstly, we will deal with the cancer deaths so lets get underway with the 33,600 deaths from lung cancer. 84% of these deaths were in smokers.[*]This means that the average 26% of the smoking population yielded more than three times the proportion of deaths ' a clear link.[*]Looking for something logical on Bronchitis, we stumbled on the information provided here.[*]Look out for anything illogical here.[/list]

Oesophageal cancer deaths numbered just under 5,000 and the deceased were found to be 66% smokers, 71% and 65% men to women respectively; again another clear link that smoking and oesophageal cancer are linked. Developing a gradual interest in Chronic Bronchitis without coughing basis for writing this article. On reading this, you will gradually get interested in Chronic Bronchitis.

[size=large][b]Next, Bladder Cancer Takes Over 1,800 Lives Per Year of Which 37% are Found to be Smokers[/b][/size][hr]However, only 19% of female cases were smokers compared with 47% of male cases. It is fair to assume that there are other factors more prevalent in female bladder cancer other than smoking but the link is clear in men. It is only if you find some usage for the matter described here on Bronchitis that we will feel the efforts put in writing on Bronchitis fruitful. So make good usage of it!
