RESPIRATORY INFECTIONS


In addition to trivial infections like colds and flu, are caused by different viruses that can occur in the upper and lower respiratory tract bacterial infection and more serious diseases. If the body's own defense is too weak or the number of invading bacteria is too high, there is an infection that is manifested by the typical symptoms of redness, warmth, swelling, pain and loss of function. Depending on the site of infection occur in the upper respiratory tract infections of the ears (otitis), the tonsils (tonsillitis = angina), the paranasal sinuses (sinusitis), throat (pharyngitis) or larynx (laryngitis) on. In the area of the lower respiratory tract can cause inflammation of the trachea and bronchi (bronchitis) or even lead to lung inflammation (pneumonia).

Besides viruses and bacteria, although there are also fungi, protozoa (single cell) and other microorganisms as infectious agents, but these occur on relatively rare. Infection takes place in respiratory infections usually by droplet infection, ie the germs of a sick person by sneezing, coughing or speaking with fine droplets through the air and spun by others absorbed through the respiratory tract. Therefore, it is advisable to avoid, especially in the wet cold season, larger crowds in small spaces.

Depending on the type of infection can cause the following symptoms:
* Sniffles.
* Cough.
* Hoarseness.
* Sore throat.
* Fever.
* Head and body aches.
* Ear pain.
* Chills.
* Fatigue.
Most of them are in acute respiratory infections by disease, but there is also a chronic course, often such as bronchitis. Characterized by a chronic infection is the constant presence of the infectious stimulus, with an occasional, more or less severe flare-ups of symptoms. This does not pass acute infection into a chronic condition, they must be adequately addressed; a prescribed antibiotic must be taken long enough (usually by using up a box).

What can you do?
* Drink plenty! (Not too hot and too spicy, mineral water, hot tea ...)
* Physical protection, fever and bed rest, plenty of sleep.
* The-counter medications, such as for example decongestant nose drops, paracetamol tablets or suppositories for pain and fever, cough and throat lozenges for disinfecting, analgesic or moistening of the throat to relieve the discomfort.
* Inhaling with chamomile tea or essential oils, possibly before the nose drops.
* Mouthwash / gargle with warm chamomile or sage tea or warm salt water (1 / 4 teaspoon salt to 1 glass of water).
Fives * / rubbing e.g. with liniment or balm with essential oils.
* Room air moisten, e.g. Hang wet towels or obscure essential oils.
* No smoking (with).

What your doctor can do?
* The physician can determine the extent and cause of the infection.
* Is this a bacterial infection, the doctor will prescribe an appropriate antibiotic to combat the pathogen.
* Viral infections can only alleviate the symptoms and the spread of infection and secondary infections can be prevented.

Prevention:
* Strengthen the immune system.
* To keep sick people apart.
* Pay attention, especially in the wet cold season appropriate clothing (not too light but not too warm).
