Patients with tracheitis should first quit smoking and drinking, maintain suitable indoor temperature and humidity, avoid eating foods that are highly irritating, ensure good ventilation and disinfection indoors, drink plenty of water, avoid staying up late, and avoid overworking. It is important to timely choose antimicrobial drugs to control the infection. The pathogens inside the body can be killed through oral or intravenous medication. It is also necessary to combine clinical symptoms to implement corresponding treatment measures, such as using physical methods to reduce fever or drug treatment during acute fever episodes.

Massage which area for tracheitis?

The treatment of tracheitis through massage does not have definite therapeutic effects. Tracheitis, commonly referred to as chronic bronchitis, is often associated with factors such as long-term smoking. For this disease, quitting smoking is the primary recommendation, as it can help slow the progression of the disease. This includes avoiding secondhand smoke as well. Additionally, patients with tracheitis can experience flare-ups during respiratory infections, so it is also important to keep warm and prevent respiratory infections. The treatment of tracheitis also involves the use of medications to suppress cough and facilitate the removal of mucus. Moreover, tracheitis can progressively lead to conditions such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). When a patient with tracheitis also has COPD, it is necessary to persist with inhaled medications, such as long-acting bronchodilators. (Note: The use of medications should be conducted under the guidance of a professional doctor.)

Can I eat peaches with tracheitis?

Patients with bronchitis can eat peaches. Bronchitis usually refers to chronic bronchitis, and it is generally good for patients with chronic bronchitis to eat some fruits, such as peaches, pears, and apples. Additionally, it is important for patients with chronic bronchitis to follow a light diet and avoid spicy, stimulating, and overly greasy foods. Patients with chronic bronchitis should also consider quitting smoking, including avoiding secondhand smoke, as the disease is often related to long-term smoking. Quitting smoking can help slow the progression of the disease. Patients with chronic bronchitis also need to prevent respiratory infections, as respiratory infections can lead to acute attacks of chronic bronchitis. Repeated acute attacks can potentially accelerate the progression of chronic bronchitis.

Does tracheitis require surgery?

The so-called tracheitis is a non-specific inflammation caused by various triggering factors that irritate the trachea. For patients with tracheitis, as long as appropriate antiallergic treatment is given, relieving tracheal spasms, anti-infection, cough suppression, expectoration, asthma relief, and other symptomatic treatments, the discomfort caused by tracheitis can be effectively controlled. Therefore, patients with tracheitis do not require surgical treatment, and surgery cannot cure tracheitis. Therefore, in cases of tracheitis, some are caused by allergic factors, some by excessive vigorous exercise, and others by viral or bacterial infection. Thus, for tracheitis caused by different triggering factors, symptomatic treatment can usually effectively control the symptoms caused by tracheitis.

How should tracheitis be treated to get better?

Bronchitis is primarily due to a decline in a person's immune resistance, followed by bronchial infection by external microorganisms, causing local inflammation in the bronchi and the formation of a large amount of secretion. The main symptoms exhibited by patients are coughing and expectoration. The treatment of bronchitis should first be handled as an infectious disease, providing appropriate anti-infection treatment, such as antibacterial and antiviral therapy. Additionally, if the patient presents symptoms of coughing and expectoration, some expectorants and symptomatic cough suppressants should be administered. If the patient exhibits symptoms of wheezing and breathlessness, treatments such as nebulization, spasm relief, and asthma relief should be given. Generally, the treatment duration for bronchitis is about a week, and the symptoms can generally be completely controlled. (Medications should be used under the guidance of a doctor.)

Can tracheitis cause a fever?

Tracheitis, in its acute inflammatory phase, can cause symptoms such as fever, although not all cases of tracheitis will lead to a fever. Fever is merely a manifestation of inflammation within the body, and respiratory infections are prone to this symptom. It is necessary to conduct timely examinations, in conjunction with clinical symptoms and supplementary tests, to implement appropriate treatments and interventions. If the body temperature exceeds 38.5 degrees Celsius, it is possible to administer antipyretic medication for symptomatic treatment, such as ibuprofen or acetaminophen. For acute tracheitis, choosing antibiotics to control the infection is also advised. (The use of medications should be under the guidance of a doctor.)
