The word rales derives from the French word rÃ¢le meaning rattle. Crackles can be heard in patients with pneumonia, atelectasis, pulmonary fibrosis, acute bronchitis, bronchiectasis, interstitial lung disease or post thoracotomy or metastasis ablation.
The tactile sensation you feel over your chest has the same cause as the sounds one can hear with a stethoscope, mucus or water in the airways or air sacs. Rales are fine crackles and can usually not be felt with your hand. They are most characteristic of heart failure and a class of diseases called interstitial lung disease (ILD). Ronchi are coarser sounds caused by the rattle of mucus in the airways.
