How to get rid of Acute Respiratory Diseases?


Acute Respiratory diseases, or lung diseases, are pathological conditions affecting the organs and tissues that make gas exchange problem in air-breathing. Most breathing problems are caused by lung diseases and may avert the body from getting the adequate amount of oxygen. They include conditions of the respiratory tract containing the trachea, bronchi, bronchioles, alveoli, pleurae, pleural cavity, and the nerves and muscles of respiration. Respiratory diseases starts from mild and self-limiting, such as the common cold to life-threatening diseases such as bacterial pneumonia, pulmonary embolism, chronic obstructive pulmonary diseases, acute asthma and lung cancer. Your body has a natural protection system designed to protect the lungs, keeping dirt and germs at bay. But there are some essential things you can do to reduce your risk of lung disease.
Here are some methods to keep your lungs healthy.
Don't Smoke:
Cigarette smoking is the main cause of lung cancer and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), which includes chronic bronchitis and emphysema. Cigarette smoke can tighten the air passages and make breathing more difficult. It generate chronic inflammation, or swelling in the lung, which can lead to chronic bronchitis. Over time cigarette smoke destroys lung tissue and may bring out changes that grow into cancer. If you smoke, it's never too late to benefit from quitting.
Avert Exposure to Indoor Pollutants That Can Damage Your Lungs:
Secondhand smoke, chemicals in the home and workplace, and radon all can lead to or causes lung disease. Make your home and car smoke free. Test your home for radon. Avoid exercising outdoors on bad air days.
Minimize Exposure to Outdoor Air Pollution:
The air quality outside can changes from day to day and sometimes is unhealthy to breathe. Knowing how outdoor air pollution alters your health and useful strategies to minimize prolonged exposure can help keep you and your family well. Natural disasters and climate change can also directly impact lung health.
Prevent Infection:
A cold or other respiratory infection can sometimes become very crucial. There are multiple things you can do to protect yourself:
·        Wash your hands regularly with soap and water. If soap and water are not available quickly, use an alcohol-based hand sanitizer with at least 60% alcohol.
·        Good oral hygiene can preserve you from the germs in your mouth leading to infections. Brush your teeth at least twice a day and consult your dentist at least every six months.
·        Get vaccinated or emergency medicine regularly against influenza. Talk to your healthcare provider to find out if which vaccine is right for you.
·        When you’re sick, keep it to yourself! Stay home and work or go to school till you're feeling better. Preserve the people around you by keeping your distance.
·        Avoid crowds during the flu and cold season.
