How the air is distributed in the lungs: measures the ability of the lungs to take in air

Son is 12 days old and his mom was feeding him formula and he coughed and choked and sounds like he is weezing when he breathes should he goto emergency room Cause you think he got formula in lungs?

This is a very serious problem at this time. I am an EMT and if the child sounds like he is wheezing or like he is gargling when he breathes he needs to go to the emergency room right away. There is a very high chance of him having fluid in his lungs and he could aspirate.

What is the difference between a sinker and a two seam fastball?

A two-seam fastball is thrown the same way as a four seam fastball, the only difference is the grip. It has more late breaking movement than a four seam fastball. For a righty it tends to rise in on a right handed hitter. For this reason, if thrown in the middle of the zone, it will jam a hitter and produce weak hits.

A sinker is the same pitch, but thrown down in the zone with slightly more wrist snap. Throwing this pitch down in the zone produces a late break downwards. The desired result is weakly hit ground balls.

Both pitches are easy to learn and easy on the arm as they do not require anything except the normal throwing motion.

Are the steps of inhaling the opposite of the steps of exhaling?

Fairly so, since the process must cyclically repeat. In humans, the diaphragm moves downward, releasing its pressure on the lungs, which fill with air due to the difference in atmospheric pressure. The oxygen reaches the lungs where it is exchanged with carbon dioxide. The diaphragm relaxes, pushing upward and forcing air from the lungs, which also contract elastically.

The major difference is that inhalation requires energy for the muscle to pull downward. It returns to its normal position by relaxation.

You can blow (expel more than the usual air) by putting voluntary pressure on the rib cage and lungs with the intercostal and abdominal muscles -- this is the principle used to inflate a balloon by mouth.

Definition of antegonial notch?

The antegonial notch is the depression along the jawline. To feel for the antegonial notch, place your thumb under your ear and against the back of your jaw. Slide your thumb along the border of the jaw as if tracing the jawline from your ear to your chin.

Your thumb will slide down the back of the jawline (mandible), then turn a corner at the angle of the jaw. Just in front of this angle, your thumb will feel a slight depression; this is the antegonial notch (easier to see on a picture than it is to describe).

What causes needle pain in lungs when breathing?

The term 'needle pain' is unclear. Sharp pains limiting your ability to breathe can be (best case) a panic attack or a bad cold. Worst case would be something like coronary artery disease or a serious lung infection.

You have two hickeys on your body and someone told you they can give you cancer - is it true because you are scared and don't know who to believe?

It has not been proven in anyway that hickeys can cause cancer. They do cause small blood clots (that's what gives the hickey its color) and damages the cells (hence the bruise).
