When there are toxins in our body, many abnormal symptoms will appear. It is excreted through various ways, such as urine, sweat, spit, etc. Some people's first phlegm when they wake up in the morning is brown. This is because they inhale a lot of particles and some bacteria in the air through breathing all night. Brown phlegm is more serious and the throat will fester. It needs timely treatment. The following is a detailed introduction. 1. If the sputum is yellow , it indicates a purulent infection. If it is green, it indicates a Pseudomonas aeruginosa infection. Such as: tracheitis, chronic bronchitis, tuberculosis, lung abscess 2. Red or brown sputum indicates blood in the sputum, which is seen in lung cancer, tuberculosis, bronchitis. Pink sputum indicates acute pulmonary edema. 3. When the sputum is brown in color, it is seen in amoebic lung abscess 4. When the sputum is rotten peach-shaped, it is due to the decomposition of necrotic lung tissue, which is seen in paragonimiasis. Paragonimiasis can be found under a microscope. 5. When the sputum is rusty, it is seen in lobar pneumonia 6. When the sputum has a foul odor and is black in color, it is seen in lung abscess, bronchiectasis and advanced stage of lung malignant tumor. 2. This situation is related to the environment you are in. Air pollution, being in a smoky environment frequently, or smoking can cause you to cough up black sticky phlegm. Another possibility is bleeding in the respiratory tract, causing coughing up dark brown sputum. It is recommended to consult a respiratory physician and an ENT physician for diagnosis. They may ask you to do a laryngoscopy and take a chest X-ray. First, rule out lung diseases and do not buy throat lozenges or anti-inflammatory drugs on your own. 3. Brown sputum: Brown sputum is common in people who smoke frequently. If you disperse the sputum mixed with saliva, you can find tiny particles. This indicates that the sputum is mixed with dust and impurities caused by ciliary damage, which is common in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. If you smoke too much, the color of your phlegm will turn brown due to the resin mixed in it. If you see this, smoke less immediately, as continuing to smoke may make your underlying respiratory problems worse. Brownish-yellow/brown-green phlegm: When a person vomits with some brownish-green/yellow phlegm, this could be a sign of intussusception. This is a serious illness that is often accompanied by severe abdominal pain, lumps in the abdomen, fever, lethargy, and diarrhea. This condition occurs when one part of the small intestine becomes trapped inside another part of the small intestine. |
