HEALTH TALKS
Prepared by the State Medical
Association of Texas
If you get a poor connection
on the telephone, it's likely to
make you pretty mad. But when
your dotcor get.- a mumbled sc und
of your voice over hi.- stethoscope,
he's glad he can't distinguish what
you're saying. If "Ninety-nine"
comes ringing through loud and
clear over his stethoscope, in fact,
he might take hold of your should-
ers and shake you a bit. Because
"Ninety-nine" or "E" or whatever
sounds he's asking you to make
are not supposed to be distinguish-
ed; if they are, and if he hears
a splashing sound in your chest
when he shakes you, then he's
got a wrong number as far as your
good health is concerned.
Your doctor thumps your chest
and listens to your breath sounds
through the stethoscope to check
on the job your lungs are doing.
If he hears things he didn't ex-
pect to hear or didn't want to hear,
then he may also have you start
talking and use your voice sounds
as a double-check on the breath
sounds. Sometimes he'll check your
voice sounds, anyway.
When you breathe in, your lungs
inflate, your ribs stick out to make
more room for the baloon-like
lungs, and the muscle called the
diaphragm which separates the
chest and abdomen moves down
t.. give the lung.- more room. The
oxygen you breathe in through
| your nose or mouth rushes down
the windpipe, splitting the two
| direction.- at the bronchial tubes
| and fill- up the expanded portion
j of the lungs.
The lungs are lined with little
• holes that look like a honeycomb
land the oxygen pushes into these
holes where it meets up with blood
vessels which carry the oxygen
to all parts of the body. Since
the blood stream is spreading
oxygen all those places, it is loos-
ing oxygen and picking up the
waste product of air known as
carbon dioxide. By the time the
oxygen starts its round trip
through the veins, there's not much
left so it hurries back to the lungs
where the carbon dioxide rushes
out those holes and back up the
windpipe and out the nose or
mouth.
When you exhale, you are get-
ing rid of the carbon dioxide which
the body didn't use and your dia-
phragm jumps back up closes to
your chest, your ribs relax and
your lungs deflate.
Asthma ami bronchitis usually
produce the kind of rales you can
hear yourself, rattlings in your
chest. Rales accompany a number
of different diseases, some slight
and some serious, but their pre-
sence is always an indication that
things aren't right. It means a
thorough check of the chest is
in order.
The scraping sounds which your
doctor may hear in your chest also
can arise from different parts of
the chest. One of the most common
of the scraping sounds or friction
rubs comes with pleurisy, how-
ever. The thin skinlike tissue which
forms a sac around the lungs is
called the pleura. The same kind
of tissue lines the whole chest
cavity. Between these tis.-ues is a
fluid which serves as a lubrica-
tion for these pleura as they rub
together during the expansion and
deflation of the lungs in breath-
ing. Normally, this goes on smooth-
ly and quietly. But if anything
happens to either that fluid or
the tissue, such a swelling or
irritation or hardening, then that
tissue doesn't rub smoothly or
quietly against the other pluera.
It's a sort of internal chafing
which hurts every time you ex-
pand and deflate your lungs and
creates a scraping noise that can
be heard through the stethoscope.
A complete examination of the
lungs will nearly always include
an x-ray. If the sounds through
the stethoscope or the looks of
the chest as you breathe or the
sounds of the chest in thumping,
if any of these deviate from the
realms considered "normal," how-
ever, your dotcor may advise more
than one x-ray picture to give him
more information as to the dis-
cordance in your chest.
