What causes water to fill around the lungs?

Increased pressure within the vascular system is the usual cause. This is caused usually by three things (one at a time or all combined): too much fluid, too few intravascular particles, too little heart function.All three cause too much pressure within the circulatory system and the fluid within the vessels is then 'pushed out' into the extavascular space. This space is within the lungs or within other tissues in the body. You get wet lungs or swollen extremities.

Can you die if any fluid enters your lungs?

For the most part, no - fluid enters the lungs due to problems with the membranes and the cells of the lungs. Because this is a passive flow following the path of least resistence, there isn't much a doctor can do to stop it directly.


What would happen if the lungs were full of mucus?

You need to find out what is causing the fluid build up. If it is due to congestive heart failure, there are medications that can help to strengthen the heart so it pumps properly, as the result of fluid build up can be life threatening. Pneumonia can be another cause for fluid in the lungs, this needs to be treated with antibiotics as to much fluid can weigh down the tiny hairs that are in your lungs. These hairs need to be able to flutter (move) if wet and weighed down they will not move and again a serious situation can be at hand. Bottom line...find out what is causing the fluid in your lungs, somethines we feel congested but that doesn't mean that we have fluid in our lungs, it's just congestion. I am not a doctor although I have worked for doctors and from that experience I make the statements above.
