Silky rattling in the airways while breathing may be due to diseases such as bronchitis, bronchial asthma, or tracheal tumors. Sputum culture, X-ray, CT and other examinations are recommended.
1. Sputum culture: Sputum culture examination can determine whether there is pathogen infection in the respiratory tract of the patient through sputum smear gram staining, cell culture and other ways. If the respiratory tract is infected with pathogens, the patient may be suffering from bronchitis, which may cause the patient’s airways to rattle when breathing.
2. X-ray examination: when the patient carries out chest X-ray examination, see the phenomenon of increased lung texture, inflammatory infiltration shadow and so on. The presence of lung infection can be considered.
3. CT examination: the tomography of CT can determine whether there is lung occupation.
4. Others: such as bronchoscopy, bronchodilator test, blood routine and so on.
If there is a sound in the airway when breathing, it may be due to other reasons. It is recommended that the patient go to the respiratory medicine department and follow the doctor’s instructions to conduct the relevant examinations, so as to determine the specific cause of the disease.
