Acquired Bronchiectasis treatment in Naucalpan de Juárez

Acquired bronchiectasis is a permanent, abnormal widening of the bronchi that develops over the course of life, generally as a result of previous damage to the airways, and that makes it harder to clear mucus.

Common symptoms: It usually presents with chronic cough with abundant phlegm, repeated respiratory infections and, at times, shortness of breath or a feeling of fatigue on exertion.

Common causes: Severe or recurrent lung infections and other diseases that injure the bronchi are among the usual history.

Which specialist handles it? The pulmonologist is the one who evaluates persistent cough and frequent respiratory infections, and guides the long-term follow-up. If a cough with phlegm becomes habitual and is accompanied by repeated infections, it's a good idea to have this professional assess it.
