hypersecretion of mucus
Introduction
Introduction Mucus hypersecretion refers to the amount of mucus secreted beyond the normal amount, usually due to some bacterial infections and other mucus gland secretion function. It is related to spleen deficiency and gland imbalance. See if there is any thyroid abnormality. Common causes are as follows: 1. Contact with allergens. 2. Infection of bacteria and their toxins. 3, physical factors (such as cold and heat changes, temperature is not adjusted), endocrine disorders or body fluid acid-base balance disorders and other causes can cause disease. It can also be present simultaneously or sequentially due to a variety of factors.

Cervical mucus examination blood routine
1. Carefully ask the relevant medical history and collect relevant clinical data.
2. Closely check the patient to clearly understand the clinical symptoms of the patient, especially the secretion of mucus.
3, appropriate physical examination of the patient, a preliminary understanding of the morphological changes of the various organs of the patient.
4. Perform relevant device examinations on the patients, conduct appropriate laboratory tests, and perform an examination of the mucus secreted by the patient to facilitate diagnosis.
5, comprehensive consideration of various inspection results, combined with the clinical symptoms of various organ damage, and finally draw a corresponding diagnosis.
Diagnosis
Differential diagnosis
1. Rhinitis refers to the inflammation of the nasal mucosa, which is characterized by congestion or edema. Patients often have nasal congestion, runny water, itchy nose, throat discomfort, and cough. Nasal secretion smear examination: During the onset of allergic reactions, eosinophilia can be seen in the nasal secretions, and more eosinophils or mast cells can be found.
2. Bronchiectasis: more common in children or adolescents, the incidence is often secondary to measles pneumonia or whooping cough, and there is a history of cough, cough, recurrent episodes, increased sputum during infection, and purulent or accompanied by fever In the course of the disease, hemoptysis is often repeated, and the wet sounds that are difficult to dissipate are often heard around the lower part of the lungs. In the severely ill patients, every time there is a clubbing (toe), the texture of the lungs in the lower lungs is rough or curly, and bronchial lipiodol angiography or thin-layer high-resolution CT (HRCT) examination can help to confirm the diagnosis.
3. Chronic pulmonary interstitial fibrosis: chronic cough, coughing a small amount of mucinous non-purulent sputum, progressive dyspnea, both lungs can be heard and cracked snoring, severe cyanosis and clubbing. In the chest radiograph, the texture of the middle and lower lung fields and the peripheral parts of the lungs increased, and the disorder was a reticular structure. In the meantime, diffuse fine spot shadows were seen. Pulmonary function tests showed restrictive ventilatory dysfunction, diffuse function decreased, PaO2 decreased, and lung biopsy was confirmed. means.
