Respiratory A — Upper Airway, Asthma & COPD

What it covers

• The airway mapped from nostril to alveolus, and the sounds it makes when it narrows
• Nosebleeds, sinusitis, sore throats — and the strep throat that comes back as heart and kidney disease
• Tonsillectomy care and the swallowing sign that means bleeding
• The cancer that starts as two weeks of hoarseness, and life with a laryngectomy
• Asthma: the twitchy airway, the two medicine jobs, inhalers done right, and the silent chest emergency
• COPD: pink puffer vs blue bloater, oxygen done safely, breathing retraining, and the food rules
• Every oxygen device on one page
• The Philippine layer: the tobacco laws and the free quit line
