The Dangers of Pulmonary Alveoli

Lung alveoli are pulmonary blisters, and their harm is mainly caused by the occurrence of spontaneous pneumothorax and hemopneumothorax, affecting the ventilation function, and secondary infections.
Pulmonary blisters are air-containing saccular cavities with a diameter of more than 1cm formed by the fusion of alveoli with each other after the pressure inside the alveoli rises and the walls of the alveoli rupture due to various reasons. Its harm mainly includes the following points:
1. Rupture of pulmonary herpes can lead to the occurrence of pneumothorax and hemopneumothorax, and patients experience symptoms such as chest tightness, chest pain, shortness of breath and dyspnea, etc. A small amount of pneumothorax and hemopneumothorax can be self-absorbed, and a medium to large amount of pneumothorax and hemopneumothorax need to be placed in a timely manner with closed thoracic drainage, so as to avoid irreversible damage to lung function caused by a prolonged period of time.
2. Influence normal ventilation function: large volume of pulmonary herpes compresses normal lung tissue, which will impair lung function and cause chest tightness, shortness of breath, palpitations and other discomforts.
3. Secondary infection: lung blisters are easy to secondary infection, if lung blisters are not timely treated, repeated lung infections may occur.
After discovering pulmonary herpes, it is recommended to consult a doctor in time and carry out appropriate treatment under the guidance of a physician.
