NOTE: This is the Consumer Version. NOTE: This is the Consumer Version. The respiratory system starts at the nose and mouth and continues through the airways and the lungs. Air enters the respiratory system through the nose and mouth and passes down the throat (pharynx) and through the voice box, or larynx. The entrance to the larynx is covered by a small flap of tissue (epiglottis) that automatically closes during swallowing, thus preventing food or drink from entering the airways.
Airway obstruction refers to a condition in which a blockage of the airways causes a reduction of airflow to or absorption of oxygen by the lungs. This blockage may occur in any part of the complex system of passages responsible for delivering air to the lungs. Airway obstructions may be mild or severe, chronic or acute. Airway obstruction differs from airway restriction. When a person experiences airway obstruction, there is a swelling or blockage of some portion of his or her air passages. In contract, a restriction of the airways is caused when a person cannot fully expand his or her lungs to inhale.
