Many variables can have an impact on our respiratory health. Given that the air quality in the country has deteriorated significantly since Diwali, our lungs are sure to suffer. The alarming increase in the number of people suffering from chest pain and breathing problems has doctors and medical experts alarmed.
Lung infections, on the other hand, can have a devastating impact on a person's health. One of the most prevalent types of lung infection is pneumonia, which can range from minor to life-threatening complications and is caused by a virus, bacteria, or even a fungus. As a result, it's critical to understand all of the signs and symptoms of a lung infection and to find out how to treat it as soon as possible.
Coughing with thick mucus that persists can indicate a lung infection.
Coughing may be prolonged in a person with a lung infection, assisting in the removal of mucus produced by inflammation of the airways and lungs. Coughing caused by respiratory disorders such as bronchitis or pneumonia may be accompanied by thick mucus that ranges in color from clear to yellowish-grey to green to white. Blood can sometimes be found in the mucous. This form of cough might last for several weeks.
Breathing difficulties and severe chest discomfort can be distressing.
When you have difficulty breathing or have trouble completing a breath cycle, you experience shortness of breath. Aside from a lung infection, it can be a symptom of a number of other serious conditions, including a heart attack, making it all the more crucial to get it checked as soon as possible. Shortness of breath and acute chest pain are common symptoms of a lung infection.
It's possible that you'll develop wheezing.
Due to inflammation, your airways may narrow when you have a lung infection. As a result, you may have wheezing, which is characterized by a high-pitched whistling sound as you exhale.
Fever, chills, and weariness are common symptoms of lung infections.
Infections of any kind can create major inflammation in the body, which can lead to serious health problems. Infections of the lungs are no exception. However, fever, chills, and exhaustion may accompany it, indicating that your body is attempting to fight the illness.

Treatments
Antibiotics may be prescribed to treat a bacterial lung infection. Additionally, antifungal medicines can be used to treat fungus-related lung infections. However, these may be ineffective in the case of a viral infection. You'll have to wait for your body to naturally tackle the virus.
Lung infections can be treated at home with a variety of natural therapies.
While most lung infections may be treated with prescription antibiotics, there are some home treatments that can help you heal faster and with fewer side effects. Here are some ideas for how to go about it.
