Typical clinical symptoms of lung abscess?

1. Patients should pay attention to the infection of acute lung abscess. The bacteria are common bacteria in upper respiratory tract and oral cavity.

3. Patients should know that the X-ray manifestations of acute lung abscess vary according to the stage of pathological development and pleural complications. In the stage of acute suppurative inflammation, a large dense shadow appeared in the lung, with fuzzy edge and uniform density, which could invade a large part of a lung segment or a lobe. After necrosis and liquefaction of the lung tissue in the lesion center, cavities containing liquid surface appeared in the dense consolidation area, and the inner wall was slightly irregular. When the drainage bronchus is blocked by valve, the cavity can increase rapidly.
