Cilia paralysis is when the cilia (tiny hairs on the end of some cells) stop working due to excessive smoking or part of the body not functioning properly. This means that dirt, microbes and excess mucus travel down the throat. This can cause harm to the lungs and trouble breathing.

What if your patient has a respiratory disease that has literally paralyzed the cilia Explain why this patient would be at an increased risk for a respiratory infection?
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.

How is cilia helpful to us?
Cilia are tiny hair like fibers that are located in our broncial tubes. They keep stuff from going into your lungs that don't belong there more or less like a filter. By the way, smoking kills the cilia and allows harmful particles to enter the lungs causing what is referred to as smokers cough. If a young person quits smoking the cilia may grow again but for older smokers the chances are slim that the cilia will ever come back.
What small cell extension that beats to create an upward current is paralyzed by cigarette smoke?
Cilia, which are small hair-like extensions on cells, beat in a coordinated manner to create an upward movement of mucus in the respiratory tract. Cigarette smoke can paralyze these cilia, leading to impaired clearance of mucus and increased risk of respiratory infections.
What happens to a cilia cell after smoking?
After smoking, cilia cells in the lungs become damaged and may become paralyzed or stop functioning. This can lead to difficulty in clearing mucus and debris from the airways, increasing the risk of respiratory infections and other lung diseases. Quitting smoking can help restore cilia function over time.
