Inflammation of the larynx, trachea and bronchi, as in croup.<\/p>\n

\n

Inflammation of the larynx, trachea, and bronchial passageways; it may be caused by bacterial or viral infection and is characterized by hoarseness, difficulty in breathing, and cough. Treatment depends on the cause; it may include steam inhalation, cough suppressants, and antibiotics, if indicated.<\/p>\n

\n

Inflammatory condition caused by irritation or infection that involves the voice box (larynx), windpipe (trachea), and the bronchi (air sacs between the trachea and the lungs that store air).<\/p>\n

\n

A severe infection of the respiratory tract, especially of young children, in whom there may be a dangerous degree of obstruction either in the larynx or main air passages (bronchi) due to the thickness and stickiness of the fluid (exudate) produced by the inflamed tissues. Treatment: as for laryngitis, with tracheostomy if necessary and bronchoscopy in addition, during which it may be possible to clear the obstructing exudate by bronchial lavage and suction.<\/p>\n

\n

Inflammation of the larynx (voice box), trachea (windpipe), and bronchi (primary air passages to the lungs) can result from either a viral or bacterial infection. While this condition is generally mild, it can be severe and potentially life-threatening in some instances. It’s a frequent cause of croup in young kids.<\/p>\n
