upper airway catarrhal symptoms
Introduction
Introduction Symptoms of respiratory catarrhage include upper respiratory symptoms such as cough, runny nose, sneezing, and stuffy nose, which are clinically common symptoms. Common diseases such as common cold, influenza, nasal diphtheria, pharyngeal conjunctival fever, measles prodrosis and pertussis catarrhal period are common diseases that cause fever and upper respiratory catarrhal symptoms. Nasopharynx catarrh, which is inflammation of the mucosa of the nasopharynx. It is characterized by mucosal congestion, edema, and mucous gland secretion in the nasopharynx. The symptoms are sensation of burning in the nasopharynx, foreign body sensation, sensation of nasopharynx, and increased secretion, which is classified as purulent or purulent.

Common diseases such as common cold, influenza, nasal diphtheria, pharyngeal conjunctival fever, measles prodrosis and pertussis catarrhal period are common diseases that cause fever and upper respiratory catarrhal symptoms. In addition, certain febrile diseases, such as acute bronchitis, pneumonia, acute viral hepatitis, polio, epidemic cerebrospinal meningitis, lymphocytic choriomeningitis, epidemic hemorrhagic fever, leptospirosis, etc. Some symptoms of upper respiratory tract catarrh may also occur in the prodromal or early stage.

Diagnosis
Differential diagnosis
Upper respiratory tract mucosal irritation: common in hydrogen sulfide poisoning. Hydrogen sulfide is a colorless gas that is irritating and asphyxiating. Low-concentration exposure only has local irritation of the respiratory tract and the eye. At high concentrations, the systemic effect is more obvious, manifesting as central nervous system symptoms and asphyxia symptoms. Hydrogen sulfide has a "smelly egg-like" odor, but very high concentrations quickly cause olfactory fatigue without feeling its taste. Mining, smelting, sugar beet making, carbon disulfide, organophosphorus pesticides, and hydrogen sulfide production in industries such as leather, sulphur dyes, pigments, animal glues, etc.; organic waste sites such as marshes, gutters, septic tanks, and sediments A large amount of hydrogen sulfide can escape during operation in the pool, etc. It is not uncommon for workers to be poisoned.
Fatal upper airway bleeding: A large amount of bleeding in the upper respiratory tract due to trauma or aneurysm rupture, life-threatening.
Repeated upper respiratory tract infection: Repeated respiratory infection in children refers to infants under 3 years of age who have repeated respiratory infections for more than 7 times per year or lower respiratory tract infections for more than 3 times. The scope of being a weak child is the object of health care management for child health workers.
