Why do boys sneeze several times in a row and cause lung explosion?

On February 15, Longmou went out to work in the company and was about to miss the bus he took. He trotted all the way to the bus stop, probably running too fast, and he felt tightness in his chest at that time.

"I can't breathe even after sneezing." Long said that he finally caught the bus. He sneezed a few times as soon as he got on the bus, and then he felt out of breath. After sitting in the car for a while, he recovered.

To the dragon's surprise, for the next month, his left chest ached faintly, and then his right chest became bloated. Realizing that something was wrong, Long went to Hunan Provincial People's Hospital for examination accompanied by his family.

The result of the exam surprised him. The doctor said that he had "bilateral pneumothorax".

The doctor explained that due to the rupture of pulmonary bullae, gas leaked out, and air ran into the chest cavity to compress the lungs, resulting in 50% compression of the right lung and 60% compression of the left lung. In layman's terms, it means "the lungs exploded."

Long said that his hometown is in Liling, Zhuzhou, and he has been working in Xingsha, Changsha.

"It weighs about 52 kilograms and has been maintained for many years." The dragon said that he weighed 100 kg when he was light, but less than 1 10 kg when he was fat. All his friends around him nicknamed him "skinny". He said that he had never deliberately gone on a diet, and he belonged to the kind of person who couldn't get fat after eating too much. Many people around him envy him for being "not fat".

"My family is single and thin." Long pointed to taking care of his sister in the hospital. She is nearly 1.7 meters tall and weighs less than 100 Jin. She looks tall. It's just that the dragon never thought that such a body shape would also bring "trouble" to himself.

Attending surgeon Zhang Zhigong, the heart of the hospital, said that many patients with spontaneous pneumothorax caused by the rupture of pulmonary bullae were tall and thin young men.

Congenital dysplasia of elastic fibers in tall and thin people leads to the decrease of alveolar wall elasticity, and it is easy to form pulmonary bullae after expansion.

He reminded that once such patients suddenly exercise violently, suddenly change their posture, suddenly exert their strength, or encounter changes in air pressure during flight, it is easy to increase the pressure in the alveoli, leading to the rupture of pulmonary bullae.

Zhang Zhigong suggested that young people, especially those who are thin, should smoke less, play less computer or mobile games, do more physical exercise and pay attention to nutrition intake. At the same time, avoid sudden strenuous exercise. If you have discomfort such as chest tightness and breathlessness, you should seek medical attention immediately.
