Interstitial pneumonia has no obvious abnormality on lung auscultation in the early stage of patients with mild symptoms, but in patients with severe symptoms, wet rales can be heard, and in some patients, bronchial breath sounds can also be heard, and when combined with pleural effusion, the affected side of the lungs can be heard on auscultation, and the breath sounds can be weakened.
1. Interstitial pneumonia refers to the inflammation of the interstitium of the lungs, which often involves the bronchial walls and peribronchial tissues. In the early stage of the disease, the patient’s lesions are limited to the interstitium of the lungs, so the respiratory symptoms are mild and there is no obvious abnormality on auscultation.
When the disease is more severe, the lesions are widespread, and wet rhonchi and bronchial breath sounds can be heard at the lesion site. When combined with pleural effusion, the affected side of the lungs can be heard on auscultation, and the breath sounds can be weakened.
2. The treatment of interstitial pneumonia is mainly anti-infective treatment against pathogenic bacteria.
When diagnosed with interstitial pneumonia, it is recommended to go to a regular hospital in time to avoid delaying the condition.
