What are the symptoms of white lung disease?
Generally, white lung disease usually presents symptoms such as mild cough with phlegm, muscle aches, difficulty breathing, chest pain, and hemoptysis (coughing up blood). It is recommended to seek timely medical attention and receive symptomatic treatment under the guidance of a qualified physician. Detailed explanations are as follows:
1. Mild Cough and Phlegm
Inflammation in the lungs causes local edema and increased secretions, which leads to coughing and expectoration of phlegm.
2. Muscle Aches
The release of inflammatory factors and fever can cause lactic acid buildup, resulting in muscle pain.
3. Difficulty Breathing
When lung tissue is affected by inflammation or fluid infiltration, alveolar function becomes impaired, making gas exchange inefficient and causing breathing difficulties.
4. Chest Pain
If the lung lesions involve the pleura, it may cause damage to lung tissue, inflammatory reactions, or amyloid deposition, leading to pleuritic chest pain.
5. Hemoptysis
Amyloid deposition may cause blood vessel rupture or inflammatory reactions, leading to hemoptysis.
Patients can take medications such as ribavirin capsules, levofloxacin hydrochloride tablets, and dexamethasone acetate tablets under a doctor's guidance. It is important to maintain healthy lifestyle habits during treatment, ensure proper indoor ventilation, and avoid worsening of the condition.
