Symptoms of diaphragmitis

There will be a small amount of serous fluid between the two layers of pleura in our chest cavity to act as a lubricant. Diaphragmitis is caused by adhesion between the pleura. The symptoms of diaphragmitis are also relatively obvious. It is generally divided into primary and secondary types. Its main manifestation is fever, and the high temperature continues. At the same time, you will feel difficulty breathing, and the pain in the neck and shoulders is also more obvious. At this time, angiography and other examinations are needed.

1. Symptoms of diaphragmitis

Diaphragmitis is divided into primary and secondary, with the main manifestations being fever, breathing pain, radiating pain in the neck and shoulders, and radiating pain in the hypochondrium; due to limited diaphragm activity, there may be difficulty breathing, etc. Diaphragmitis is mainly a series of symptoms caused by inflammation and thickening of the diaphragm. If there is lung discomfort, which is more common in stubborn hiccups, it is recommended to do CT scan, angiography or MRI.

2. Treatment of diaphragmitis

The main symptoms of hiccup myositis are fever, breathing pain, radiating pain in the neck and shoulders, and other breathing difficulties. Once discovered, antibiotic treatment should be actively carried out, go to the hospital as soon as possible, and take appropriate measures. It is recommended to do relevant examinations to determine the cause of the disease, mainly symptomatic treatment, and appropriate application can shorten the pathology. When the pain is severe, medication can be used. Eat less raw and cold food, pay attention to diet and keep warm. If the diaphragm is damaged due to overwork, you can go to a regular hospital and adopt Chinese medicine treatment methods such as electrotherapy, hot compress, acupuncture, and blockade. If the pain is obvious, you can take blood-activating and analgesic drugs for treatment. You should pay attention to rest, eat a light diet, and eat more vegetables and fruits.

3. What is diaphragmitis?

The pleura is a layer of serous membrane that covers the surface of the lungs and the inner side of the thorax, which are called the visceral and parietal pleura respectively. The two layers of pleura form a gap called the pleural cavity. Under normal circumstances, the pleural cavity contains only a small amount of serous fluid, which acts as a lubricant, reduces friction between the two layers of pleura, and prevents adhesion.

4. Causes of pleurisy

Pleurisy is an inflammation of the pleura, which can be caused by a variety of diseases such as infection (bacteria, viruses, fungi, ameba, lung fluke, etc.), tumors, allergies, chemicals and trauma. Among pleurisy caused by bacterial infection, tuberculous pleurisy is the most common type of pleurisy.
