Da disturbo stagionale a spia di gravi malattie
C’E’ TOSSE E TOSSE:SONO ALMENO TRE E DIVERSE
Il punto su un sintomo assai comune, nell’esperienza dell’Unità Operativa di Pneumologia all’Università di Pavia
PAVIA - Quanti tipi di tosse conoscete? Ve lo diciamo noi: almeno tre, una “buona”, un’altra “meno buona” ed infine la “buona e cattiva”. In sostanza ce n’è per tutti gusti e quindi occorre fare la massima attenzione. E’ il pensiero dell’Unità Operativa di Pneumologia Riabilitativa at the Scientific Institute of Pavia IRCCS Fondazione "Maugeri".
The former is a useful and positive reaction that the body puts into action in the expulsion of foreign material accidentally entered in the upper airways, such as when a drop of water goes through or a small piece of bread does not take away the right.
The other, which usually presents in association with a cold or bronchitis that causes very clear, is a phenomenon mainly of a seasonal nature and usually intended to lead to a short time. But when s'evidenzia a new onset of cough or representing a deterioration of existing conditions, it is good listen more to the opinion of the medical officer.
part of the patient is also important to report any problems or allergic-type work in order to better evaluate what to do on the diagnostic and therapeutic plan.
If, on the contrary, there is no clear or identifiable causes well and maybe with new symptoms such as breathlessness, blood in sputum, fever and chest pain - plus -
can be a dangerous red flag for something more serious.
Here, the tests are useful to policy-level X-ray image as the X-ray and CT scan, instrumental, by spirometry, bronchoscopy, gastroscopy, or to chimico – clinici quali sangue ed espettorato.
In conclusione, la tosse può rappresentare un naturale meccanismo protettivo delle vie respiratorie od un fastidioso disturbo invernale, ma se accompagnata da altri sintomi importanti, deve essere considerata spia di situazioni cliniche maggiormente complesse e gravi.
