The lungs are the most important respiratory organs in our body, they can help regulate the respiratory system, complete the exchange of gases inside and outside the body. If there are abnormalities in the lungs, the body may undergo many changes.

Persistent cough
When lung disease occurs, it is not silent, there will be many abnormalities, the most obvious manifestation is a situation where there is a prolonged cough with a lot of phlegm.
If you find yourself coughing persistently for a long time, then you need to be vigilant because this may be a distress signal from your lungs. Also, if you notice blood streaks in the phlegm when coughing, don’t foolishly ignore it, go for a lung CT scan as soon as possible.
Fever not subsiding
In fact, fever is also a self-immune process of the body, under normal circumstances, if a person has a fever, taking some fever-reducing medication appropriately can lead to a noticeable improvement, or even recovery.

Chest tightness and wheezing
When there are changes in the lungs, it can affect normal breathing and metabolism of the body, so the abnormal condition of chest tightness and shortness of breath is also clearly visible. When you experience such a situation, it is an important manifestation of decreased lung function.
This is due to inadequate oxygen supply in the lungs, affecting normal metabolism and blood circulation in the body. If not treated promptly, it may lead to conditions such as pulmonary emphysema, pulmonary embolism, so it is recommended to have a lung CT scan and receive treatment early.
