If you are reading this, I know you are not a stranger to muscle knots. These knots can be particularly nasty when they form in the upper part of your back pain, especially between your shoulder blades. They may keep you up at night and ruin a perfectly good, relaxing day.
Rhonchi Definition. Rhonchi are rattling, continuous and low-pitched breath sounds that are often hear to be like snoring. Rhonchi are also called low-pitched wheezes. They are often caused by secretions in larger airways or obstructions.
Usually the COPD patients are diminished. Some to the point that you barely hear lung sounds at all. CHF patients are usually the ones that sound wet (they need lasix IV when its that bad). They can have various sounds depending on how sick they are.Usually you will hear rhonci and rales.ales and crackles are the same, they mean it sounds wet and crackly. Rhonci sound like leather rubbing together. Pneumonia patients may have a smorgasborg of sounds. I have also heard pneumonia patients that lung sounds are pretty much clear, but the xray shows infiltrates.
