Pneumonia

with a flue of any sort you will run a fever

it is only safe if your doctor tells you it is, it might be safe for you but it wont be safe for people around you because the germs are in the air for a however long the journey is, but mostly it depends on what your doctor says, so the best thing would be to see your doctor/gp.

hope this helps :D

In addition, bacterial contamination of nebulizer and humidification systems can occur, possibly leading to the spread of pneumonia.

It depends how bad the pneumonia is. You should really ask your doctor or your boss. I wouldn't advise you to go back to early, but don't go back too late. Think of money. Your mates could have earned £100 in your 'extra' days!

RML Pneumonia is "Right Middle Lobe" Pneumonia. The right lung has three lobes; the upper, middle, and lower. The left lung on the other hand only has two lobes; the upper and lower. RML Pneumonia refers to the location in the lung of the pneumonia, and not the virus or bacterial type itself.

I was diagnosed as HEPATITIS B carrier in 2013 with fibrosis of the

liver already present. I started on antiviral medications which

reduced the viral load initially. After a couple of years the virus

became resistant. I started on HEPATITIS B Herbal treatment from

ULTIMATE LIFE CLINIC (ww w.ultimatelifeclinic. com) in March, 2020. Their

treatment totally reversed the virus. I did another blood test after

the 6 months long treatment and tested negative to the virus. Amazing

treatment! This treatment is a breakthrough for all HBV carriers.

Pneumonia is an inflammation or infection of the lungs most commonly caused by a bacteria or virus.

no pneumonia doesn't effect the gender because pneumonia can affect anyone because they could catch it.

Pneumonia affects the lungs.

Bacteria exposed to DNA can incorporate the DNA and change phenotype.

Like many other viral infections, the main treatment is supportive care like fluid, oxygen, ect. There are antiviral medications, but they are normally not effective in viral pneumonia. Viral pneumonia can progress to bacterial pneumonia because the bacteria takes advantage of the fact that you're already compromised. In this case, antibiotic should help.

Here is what I have done...I hope it helps. I take the dog and put her in a small sized bathroom with a humidifier on. I come in and lay with them so they don't feel abandoned...wear shorts because it's going to get warm. I lay her head first towards me and chat to her as I pat firmly on her sides...this helps to loosen any fluid in the lung or surrounding areas - just like they do people in the hospital. (cup your hands & do it hard enough to loosen but not hard enough to make uncomfortable) I also make sure that they get enough water. If they will not drink themselves I use a syringe (you can get a larger one from the vet probably at no cost if you tell them what you are going to use it for. (they won't give you a needle with it - it's just plastic inserted into the mouth). I go half way back the mouth and tip the head back some to let gravity help me. Sometimes they will get mad and bat their heads to make you stop...but just continue chatting slow and easy not showing any anxiety or frustration. I also use warm water...I just find they cough it up less..don't ask me why. For food I wet down their normal dry food with some water. When it is moist if they still will not eat it on their own I take 3 or 4 pieces at a time and push it to the back of the throat - it's force feeding them. But sometimes/most times for me - it actually brings them to the knowledge that they really are hungry. I leave soft music going when I am out of the room. I have done this for 3 days for my worst case...allowing them out of the bathroom for potty brakes as well as a little small walk now and again through the house. Pneumonia will settle if your dog just lays around...she will need some exercise, but again since she is weak make sure not to over do it.

Pneumonia is a lung inflammation caused by viral or bacterial infection. How long it lasts depends on the age and health condition of the patient, how quickly treatment was administered and whether it was caused by a virus or bacteria.

There are many names but really only a few basic types: bacterial, viral, fungal, parasites, and pneumonia due to irritation of inhaled smoke, gases or other foreign substances. Parasitic pneumonia is rare, except in patients who are immunocompromised, like in HIV/AIDS.

The types of pneumonia are named either for the type of organism that causes the inflammation and infection of the lungs (bacterial, viral, fungal, or inhalation of foreign substances), the specific organism (e.g., pneumococcal pneumonia, Legionairre's pneumonia, CMV pneumonia), or the method of obtaining the pneumonia (e.g., aspiration pneumonia).

The types, like aspiration pneumonia and pneumonia caused by inhalation of foreign substances, will usually acquire bacterial infections along with the inflammation, so they and other bacterial pneumonia conditions are treated with antibiotics specific to the organism involved in causing the infection. Parasitic pneumonia is also usually treated with antibiotics.

Viral pneumonia and aspiration pneumonia are treated with anti-viral medications and treatment for any secondary opportunistic bacterial infections with antibiotics.

Anti-fungal medications are given for the fungal pneumonias, and secondary bacterial infections can also accompany these types.

Other treatments for all of these and the pneumonia caused by smoke inhalation or other breathing of chemicals or foreign substances involve monitoring and keeping the oxygen levels in the blood from going too low from improper air exchange in the fluid filled lungs by administration of oxygen at levels above plain room air. Respiratory treatments (breathing treatments with aerosolized medications) may be given to help loosen secretions and aid expectoration. And symptomatic treatment for fever, cough, chest pains, and dehydration. In rare cases, respiratory failure may require use of a ventilator.

First off, I am not a doctor. However, if you do not regularly wash your hands and regularly touch your mouth and/or nose, you have a higher chance of picking up the virus (or viri) that cause the common cold. If you have children and eat and drink after them, you are more likely to catch a cold since children are notorious for touching everything they can get their little hands on. If you do not get enough sleep, are under much stress, or if you do not eat well-balanced nutritional meals, your body is less able to fight off incoming germs that cause colds and flu.

Aspiration pneumonia is bronchopneumonia that develops due to the entrance of foreign material that enter the bronchial tree, usually oral or gastric contents (including food, saliva, or nasal secretions).[1] Depending on the acidity of the aspirate, a chemical pneumonitis can develop, and bacterial pathogens (particularly anaerobic bacteria) may add to the inflammation.

Causes

Aspiration pneumonia is often caused by an incompetent swallowing mechanism, such as occurs in some forms of neurological disease (a common cause being strokes) or while a person is intoxicated. An iatrogenic cause is during general anaesthesia for an operation and patients are therefore instructed to be nil per OS (NPO) for at least four hours before surgery.

Whether aspiration pneumonia represents a true bacterial infection or a chemical inflammatory process remains the subject of significant controversy. Both causes may present with similar symptoms.

Location

The location is often gravity dependent, and depends on the patient position. Generally the right middle and lower lung lobes are the most common sites of infiltrate formation due to the larger caliber and more vertical orientation of the right mainstem bronchus. Patients who aspirate while standing can have bilateral lower lung lobe infiltrates. The right upper lobe is a common area of consolidation in alcoholics who aspirate in the prone position.[2] Depending on the acidity of the aspirate, a chemical pneumonitis can develop, and bacterial pathogens (particularly anaerobic bacteria) may add to the inflammation.

Aspiration pneumonia is when something has been inhaled into the lungs, and causes an infection: Pneumonia.

there is no such thing as paracardiac pneumonia...

It's possible but extremely unlikely ... unless you had an immune system defect.

The enthusiasm that comes from community participation can lead to a greater sense of self-reliance for the future e.g. communities are usually willing to participate in water a program because they see that benefits will come.

Cataracts occur on the eye.

why would i answer this if im th one asking the question

I was vaccinated for Polio as a child in the mid 1950's. I am 62 yrs. old now--am I still immuned to contracting ?Polio

There is a vaccine for some forms of bacterial pneumonia. The vaccine doesn't protect against some forms of viral pneumonia, or the pneumonia that is put upon those with a low immunity system. By the way I'm twelve and i have pneumonia and i know all of this because i read. I'm not a computer freak, I just want to help.

Preventing the flu is important also, because it can lead to pneumonia as a secondary infection because your resistance is low. Also, DON'T SMOKE, especially if you have a respiratory infection.

Smokers have repeatedly damaged the cilia in their trachea, larynx and lungs. Cilia are tiny, hair-like structures that help sweep mucous out of the air-ways and into the pharynx to be coughed out or swallowed. The toxins in smoke kill these projections and create more mucous. When a person has pneumonia, they also have more mucous. This elevated mucous count with the depressed cilia count gives the lungs more work than they can handle. Therefore, the mucous of pneumonia cannot be properly disposed of. This may eventually lead to death.
