How to treat phlegm embolism

Sputum embolism differs in treatment according to the location, amount and duration of illness, as follows: 1. Conservative treatment: It must be effectively treated with drugs for expectoration and phlegmification. If the patient is bedridden, the patient’s family or nursing staff should pay attention to help the patient pat the back frequently to help the patient cough up the phlegm. 2. Bronchoscopic treatment: If the phlegm embolism is very serious and cannot be eliminated by conventional medication, you can also go to the hospital to use bronchoscopy and perform bronchoscopic flushing and irrigation, which can also help the phlegm embolism to be discharged. In general, the treatment of phlegm embolism is a chronic and long-term process, and we should pay attention to let the patient drink more water and make up more liquid appropriately, which is also conducive to the discharge of phlegm embolism.
