The symptoms of respiratory disease differ depending on the disease. Common symptoms include
- Shortness of breath
- Coughing up blood or excessive phlegm
- Loss of appetite
- Cachexia (marked weight loss)
- Cyanosis – a bluish discoloration of the lips, tongue or fingers
In some cases respiratory disease without symptoms can be diagnosed during the investigation of another disease or through a routine check-up. If so, Kingsbridge Private Hospital respiratory medical consultation can initiate your care pathway. Treatment and investigation of respiratory conditions depends on the extent of the particular disease and the severity of symptoms.
At Kingsbridge Private Hospital we can offer consultation with full history and investigation, and arrange the following investigations as required:
Ventilation perfusion scan
Pulmonary function test – Spirometry
Sputum culture
