Lung and Respiratory Metabolism

Refers to a state where the functioning of lung including the respiratory tract is hampered by some infectious microbes or any environmental components. An infection of this type can be caused due to Bacterial and Fungal lung infections which is normally further classified as an upper respiratory tract infection (URI or URTI) or a lower respiratory tract infection (LRI or LRTI). Lower respiratory infections, such as pneumonia, tend to be far more serious conditions than upper respiratory infections, such as the common cold and flu. Among the various respiratory and lung disorders, tonsillitis and sinusitis is the common which is caused due to the infection of tonsils or the associated membrane bodies. Pathogenic infections are the caused due to various bacteria’s, viruses and fungus inhabitants in the human body. Cigarette smoking is the leading cause of COPD, whose long-term exposure to other lung irritants, such as air pollution, chemical fumes, or dust will create a deadly condition for the patient.
