cilia protect you lungs by stopping and bacteria and dust from reaching them. if the cilia is damaged then dust and bacteria will be able to get down you throat and cause a lot of damage. hope this helped :)
you die of ventilation problems... :(
Cilia wave about in particular manner to perform some particular function. For example the cilia in your respiratory tract push the foreign particles outwards. Cilia push the egg towards the uterus.
Cilia themselves do not grow in the traditional sense, as they are specialized hair-like structures that extend from the surface of certain cells. However, the cells that produce cilia can grow and divide, leading to the formation of new cilia as the cells differentiate and develop. Cilia can also be repaired or replaced if they are damaged, but the process is dependent on the health and function of the underlying cells.
If the cilia in your respiratory system are damaged, it is least likely that you will effectively clear mucus, dust, and pathogens from your lungs. This can lead to an increased risk of respiratory infections and decreased lung function.

If you have celiac disease then it will damage your small intestine.
Liver cirrhosis is one such disease.
We call these tiny little hairs cilia or microvilli. They are often involved in moving mucus which entraps small tiny particles like pollen and dust. If these are damaged by disease, the little hairs can't do the job.
If a patient has a respiratory disease that has paralyzed the cilia, they would be at an increased risk for respiratory infections because cilia play a crucial role in moving mucus and particles out of the respiratory tract. Without the cilia functioning properly, pathogens and debris can accumulate in the airways, leading to an increased susceptibility to infections.
The job of cilia is to line all along air passages such as, lungs and the nose ect. And is designed to stop dust and bacteria. Also cilia can be damaged or destroyed if are a heavy smoker.
Damaged cilia can sometimes be reversible, depending on the extent of the damage and the underlying cause. In many cases, if the cilia are not permanently destroyed and the damaging factors are removed, they can regenerate over time. However, chronic damage or conditions that impede cilia function may lead to long-term impairment. Consulting a healthcare professional is advisable for personalized information regarding cilia health and recovery.
