Respiratory Problems

There are many factors that cause breathing problems. Some people have breathing problems when they catch a cold.
Others have breathing problems due to occasional bouts of acute sinusitis.
Sinusitis can make it difficult to breathe through the nose for one to two weeks until the inflammation subsides and the congested sinuses are drained.

Allergens,
dust,
fungus,
pollution,
stress and anxiety,
airway obstruction due to nasal congestion,
deviation of the nasal septum,
throat problems,
oxygen reduction due to high altitude.

Chronic
allergic sinusitis
and asthma

Respiratory problems can also have other symptoms, which include:

Congestion or stuffy nose,
runny nose,
itchy or teary eyes
, chest tightness, coughing,
noisy
breathing,
abnormal breathing
and shallow breathing.

The nasal passages are a passageway for allergens and viruses to enter your lungs. For this reason, the nose and sinuses are often associated with many lung problems. Inflammation of the sinuses and nasal airways may trigger reflexes and lead to asthma attacks. The first trigger for asthma is allergy.

Doctors can diagnose breathing problems by taking physical tests, the patient’s medical history, the medical history of the patient’s family, and using various tests. For example, pulmonary function tests are often used to evaluate lung function in people with asthma. These tests include spirometry and a test called methacholine challenge.
Spirometry is a simple breathing test. This test measures the amount of air you can exhale through your lungs and the speed of air exhalation. Spirometry is performed to detect the degree of airway obstruction.
The methacholine challenge test can help diagnose asthma. Your doctor knows better which test is needed for your condition.
In some cases, your doctor will need to take an X-ray to see the structure of your chest.
In some cases, the doctor may need to take pictures to see the structures inside your chest, including the heart, lungs, and bones.
A chest X-ray is a good test to diagnose lung problems.
Although it alone cannot diagnose many lung diseases.
For some people who have breathing problems, CT scan of the chest is required.
These scans are used to diagnose all lung problems.
A CT scan uses X-rays and a computer to make detailed pictures.
If you suffer from chronic sinusitis, your doctor may need a CT scan of your sinuses.
This scan is used to evaluate your sinuses.
Once your problem is diagnosed, your doctor will prescribe an effective treatment to solve your breathing problems.

Substances that cause respiratory problems are called stimulants.
Staying away from triggers is the first way to control allergies and asthma. For example, using a mask when you work in the house or yard will make you less exposed to allergenic triggers.
Avoiding furry pets, washing bed sheets at least once a week, staying indoors when air pollution is at its peak, and changing air conditioner filters regularly can prevent serious problems for people with allergies. slow
Taking medication is also very effective in treating respiratory problems. Anti-allergic drugs such as antihistamines and decongestants can make breathing easier for people with allergies. Medicines used for respiratory problems can be taken orally or Use as a nasal spray.
In addition, inhaled steroids can also be soothing for people who have allergies and chronic sinusitis. These drugs are used to reduce inflammation in the airways. Anti-allergy shots are another way to reduce sensitivity to allergens. reduce and be soothing for patients who have breathing problems.
Asthma is treated with oral and inhaled medications that open the airways and reduce the initial inflammation in the airways.
These drugs that are used to treat asthma help reduce or even prevent airway obstruction and reduce excessive mucus production. People who have asthma need to reduce their inflammation to keep the airways open. Reduce sensitivity to asthma triggers.

Viral infections (cold or flu),
pollens and pollution in the air,
pet dander,
fungi
, dust,
cockroaches , cigarette
smoke, allergenic foods

Even exercise may trigger asthma for some people.

Usually, patients who come for nose surgery due to breathing problems complain about their breathing problems for three reasons. The first two are the deviation of the nasal septum and the size of the nasal prongs. If your breathing problems are caused by these two things
, It can be corrected with rhinoplasty, but the third case, which is related to nasal polyps and chronic sinusitis, should be checked separately before rhinoplasty and corrected. Other cases such as allergies, asthma, lung diseases, diseases Heart and… can’t be treated with nose surgery.

In a balanced and smooth nose that has a strong skeleton, the respiratory function should also be performed well. After rhinoplasty, your nose may become congested and stuffy in a period of several weeks or months, but this is a temporary condition. is
If rhinoplasty is performed by an experienced nose surgeon, your breathing ability will improve in the long term (if you already have breathing problems) or your nasal airways will be preserved as they were before (if you already have breathing problems). You have not breathed).
