Crackles (more on inspiration) :
- fine (alvioli) 8:58 *fibrosis (14+ crackles, left heart failure 9-14)
- coarse (medium, small bronchioles) 9:16 *COPD (1-4 crackles)
Pleural rub : 14:05
Thank u sir
Thank you for the timestamps
Just a 7th grader here for no reason and learning on my own time and I think I've learned more here than most of the school year.
future healthcare worker? :)
Brilliant. My daughter is 15 and wants to be a trauma surgeon. She watches this stuff too. I'm watching because I wheeze🤣
you look 50?
This is a whole world dude. A very fulfilling one. That said, if you want it to be fulfilling *and* well paying, do not do private EMS. 90% of the time you'll make more working at Costco.

Damn, this was way more straight forward than the lecture I had about the same thing some days ago. Good job man , I wish my lecturers were like this. Especially with the audio examples.
I am so grateful for this video! I'm preparing the very hard German Heilpraktiker exam and this was so helpful in understanding why the sounds are different, what the mechanisms behind them are and with which pathologies each sound can be associated. Thank you so much!!!
I am a nursing student and this has helped me so much! Thank you :)
I was listening to a lady that stayed with my brother after he got shot and she told me she knew he wasn't gonna make it because of the way he was breathing and after months of looking for something like this I FOUND IT AND I BELIEVE I MADE PEACE. Thank you!
Im so glad you found some peace. Im so very sorry for what happened to your brother.
Thank you for not only doing a fantastic job, but being enthusiastic. Keep up the good work.
Wonderful video, thank you for showing the area of the respiratory system affected as well.
I'm almost 52 years old and i have asthma and copd and my lungs sound so baaaad past week but im petrified of hospital so im hoping it will clear up cos i ain't getting much oxygen in at present but ive learned so much here in 5mins than 52years of my life thank you so much and i gladly subscribed
For huch much time you are suffering from copd
And astama
You just saved my life. Have a health assessment exam coming up and this was always hard for me to understand because a lecture just can't do it. COVID has made it very difficult to learn as a nursing student but your photos, in addition to the audio and explanations was very helpful, thank you.
Nice to see you Dr.Matt! Great content. I listen to the podcast, everyone knows Dr.Mike, so it's nice to finally match a face to your voice.
I love how you explained why wheezing is more likely during expiration - because the smaller airways narrow (as opposed to smaller airways expanding in inspiration). It finally makes sense!
Thank you, so helpful! I saw 2 doctors last week and ER 2 days ago and still couldn't get a Covid 19 test. I was able to get a pneumonia diagnosis at the ER and now with this video some of my scary noises are explained. I hear the pleural rub at night when I try to sleep - awful! I can understand medical stuff easily and this will help me explain over the phone if I need to.
Did you have to get a chest x-ray? What did they do to treat your pneumonia?
Crisp and detailed info! Thank you so much sir!
Thank you DR For explaining different types of breathing problems. I do have COPD, with wheezing. No fever, rare cough and some fatigue. Went to public got: alka-seltzer plus, power max Gels. Just started yesterday, also, taking robitussin cough+chest congestion 'DM' I can't get to see any of my doctors bc they are not seeing patients. I called my local health clinic and was told to get a referral to see clinic nurse or doctor. The 'ER' dept won't see me either.
This works: I said would it help if I brought my Attorney with me.? It worked. Be safe everyone. Trust in God to get us through this.
I hope you feel better soon Elizabeth
Amen and Amen I'm so scared I'm abroad and I have this scary sound I really don't know what to do 😢😢😢only God on my side
Great video. Very helpful. Would ask if you could play sounds before explaining and after...to reinforce the sounds. Thank you!
So glad I’ve found this right before my exam, cleared so much up for me. Thank you!
How was the exams?😂
Prince William 😂 funnily enough i was asked about this and I got 100%, so thank you guys indeed!
@@aimerancekady6678 ayeee😂 well done
I love listening to experts super interesting
Been thinking silently about the damn virus and how my breathing is how I been coughing and kinda paranoid.
Then it happens. This video appears out of nowhere. I can’t tell me the phones don’t read your thoughts
I know right my daughter breathing really weird
Same I’m wheezing and I’m very scared
of course it does
Wheezing
😓
Me too......
Excellent lecture and very informative
May please make a video with this lecture with short sentences for each sound and which medical problem is related to
PowerPoint could be extremely useful to show students and residentes
Love your lecture. Thank you
Thanks for this video, great explanations, examples and causes. While I'm no medical student, or concerned for any lung ailments, my kitty is asthmatic! I love her to pieces so I bought a stethoscope to listen to her lungs and heart form time to time.
An other very clear video! Well explained 👍
Its incredible these two teaches you biology better than school 🤣 thanks docs!!
My school teaches like this
Thank you very much Dr Matt. Just done this at university for advanced clinical practitioner course. Books, demonstrations and videos are the perfect combination.
Absolutely stunned by the quality and insights!
Question: why aren't there coarse crackles with astma (poorly controlled/uncontrolled)? inflammation and narrowing of the airways would close up the airways on expiration as well. Inflammation would make the wall more stiff as well.
A very useful lecture, expecting more please.
Really clear lecture, and great to hear the sound examples too!!
Brilliant lecture .. expertly delivered ..
Best explanation I found on youtube on this topic. Thank you..
Thanks for this clear explaination - I had crackles - sent o emergency and diagnosed with bronchieatsis, now on oxygen at home.
Doctors don't have time to explain
I’ve been noting out your informative lecture like never before, thank you so much, it was very helpful and the tips given are clinically very beneficial on my practice 🙏
Thank you for the very well explained video on lung's sounds.
your lecture is amazing, but It is better if you teach us the management and how to treat the abnormal sounds
Go to Griffith University Gold Coast campus. Nursing 😊
I can't sleep at night my throat wheezing playing in my mind when I cough harshly it going away for a minute then coming back
Rales (also called crepitation although less used bec it’s a confusing word) are either dry (fibrosis) or wet (CHF)
Rhonchi are coarse harsh and originate in bigger airways !!! unlike rales which originate from smaller airways
Gosh, the stridor sound sounds like in one of a horror movie I have seen recently! lol
That sounds freaked me out
When i inhale very deeply with my mouth like 5-10 times i get a weird sensation in my lungs, mostly in my back, like an itch.I stopped smoking a few weeks ago and when i stopped then it started.I dont have wheezing or shortness of breath, just that weird itch or sensation after a few full inhales.I have alergy to pollen and my asthma activates ONLY in spring while pollen is around, during summer and winter its nothing to worry about.I dont have asthma attacks.But this year my "asthma" was better and im better around pollen.Just asking if i should worry because thats the only thing im worried about.
My wife is a heavy menthol smoker & she's 52. She wheezes, coughing up stuff but, the scariest sound is a very loud "Thumping Sound" on exhale while she's sleeping. She has said that I stop breathing upwards of 20sec while I sleep but I noticed she does as well. However, that loud thumping sound is scary & she will not go to a doctor. I've never heard anything like that.
It sounds like if you throw a baseball at an empty plastic drum. Thump, thump thump
I'm here because my lungs sound like a rock tumbler when I exhale. You?
Thanks a lot, you really blessed me.
Good job man! Clear , simple and educative...
I did a chest X-ray but they said nothing is there. But I keep making this weird, loud and embarrassing noise when air forcefully comes out from my chest or king, I’m not really sure where. But it gives me this sharp pain on my chest when it happens and I do that like 30times a day🥺 the dr.s keep saying nothing is wrong with my chest. What can I do🙏
What about Stertor? I'm learning about seizures, and I hear stertorous breathing is common among seizure victims, and I want to know more about what causes it, and what does it sound like.
How do we fix this cause like I am trying to not make noise as I breathe and people keep calling me annoying and start harassing me for this
What could cause someone to hear a fine crackling only when in a reclined position taking deep breath?
Beautifully explained thank you so much.
I have a Wheezing that sounds like Mariah Carey..my EX Boyfriend used to call it that! What is that? It's only heard on the exhale..
Nice explanation sir
Thanks 😊
Awesome presentation,
would be better if you could've add normal breath sound along each abnormal sound
But what causes a small vacuum sound (like a "pfhooop" said on in breath) at the end of an inhalation? I had this sound last year when I had an infection of some kind in my lower airways. I guess there may have been some parts in the lungs that were closed but the negative pressure from the diafragma when breathing in caused it to open and thus making this weird sound.
When I turn to my sides, and let my mouth open and don't breathe, it makes a sound that I'm like breathing and it sometimes makes my chest a bit tight
Yes me too😭 its so weird
same!! That’s why I came here
@@xwoods7 is it normal
@@gaga3740 yep most definitely, happened to me when i started doing back exercises but its been like 4 weeks and the sounds gone as long as you don't feel any pain
@@xwoods7 I don’t feel pain it’s just when I like twist and have my mouth open it’s like a weird sound like your walking on fresh snow lol
Does a person with severe wheezing, shortness of breath from 12+ years from smoking in late 20’s, with 2 previous cases of severe pneumonia with in the past 7 years, have _any_ chance of surviving covid-19? Or should I just start to prepare. Truly...
Short answer: No.
Long Answer: Absolutely not.
Really Long Answer: Nope. No. Never in a million years. Definitely not surviving. 0% chance of living. Good as dead.
i wonder the same 😅🙈
Hi miss,. I don't know if those conditions will definitely impact you in any specific way. I can sense your worry. You should know, and take seriously, the fact that many people all over the world are given a life sentence from a doctor, that they will live only a certain amount of years because they have some terrible disease, and end up living way longer than the doctor would have ever guessed was possible. I truly believe that your attitude is so important in such matters. What you should do, above all other things (alongside being clean and hand washing), is to take care of your anxiety. There are many ways that you can do so. I will pray for you. God bless you.
Also, I've heard so many stories of people who quit smoking after doing so for 10 years and a year later, they don't have any problems. and even after such diagnoses like Emphysema, their lung issues were resolved. Do what you can to strengthen your lungs but just know that many people do fine after they stop smoking and at least you didn't do it for 20 years. Also, look up what happens after viral pneumonia. I don't think there are any structural changes in the body but it's worth looking into.
Victoria mydlarz Thank you, that was incredibly kind for you to take the time to write that. You’re absolutely right about having a positive outlook and attitude, and how that can always help., and also very perceptive to notice my worry.. I really am trying to stay as calm & isolated as possible during this time, but I think what’s also adding a lot of stress is my little ones that depend on me. I foster, rescue, & rehabilitate pets that are disabled &/or come from abuse, and I truly don’t even know what would happen to them if anything happened to me.. but I’m going to try to work on that anxiety. Thank you very much for your prayers, I will also pray for you & your family’s health & safety💜
when i inhale deeply, occasionally i get a hiccup noise. i think the inhale causes my larynx to contract, idk how to stop it, its normally when i lay down
Woule fine or course crackles be cured with very hot climate? I live in England and it's always damp/cold. Just think the lungs would benefit from hot air going into them.
I have asthma, I've been told that there is no air movement in my lungs but no wheezing or phlegm, what does that sound like if there is no air movement in lungs or minimal air movement?
To answer your question, I am a respiratory therapist, and we would say “tight” or “diminished.” We would also just say little air movement.
Hey please help! My husband makes this strange suckling clicking sound multiple time throughout the night lasting 30 seconds up to several minutes his mouth is also usually clenched up in a kissy face lol and he makes the sound as his mouth goes into that position and out of it over and over again it’s almost every night I have looked online and can’t figure it out. Kinda like a snorting/ tongue clicking/ sucking sound all in one so hard to describe but I’m worried it could be serious since it happens so often and as the sound is made his mouth puckers kind of… do u know what this could be?
I be having crackles problems when I lay down does this mean something bad finna happen? Can this be fixed?
Crackling is typical to hear in a chest infection which I notice you don't mention.
he did at the 9 min mark and described the 2 types with audio samples
@@marvintolentino1924 No he only mentions fibrosis, heart failure and COPD when in fact those are far less common than viral bronchitis, there's a saying in medicine, "when you hear hoofbeats think horses not zebras".
@@ridinggambit5017 But, they also say, "Don't forget that it could be a zebra." The more prevalent saying, "When you hear hoofbeats, think horses, not zebras" is based on Occam's Razor, which states that the simplest explanation is often correct. Unfortunately, this can delay diagnosis of a rare disease. "Keep an open mind" is best practice for the patient.
@@elizabethmorgan2621 This guy is failing to mention the most common cause of a crackle, basically Occam's Razor in reverse.
I would say that the fine and course crackles are exactly the opposite in your audio examples. The course are lower pitched and fine are higher pitched.
Nice explanation. Can you please share your bibliography?
I only get a problem with my breathing after a sneeze and briefly in the morning after i wake up. What do I have? It feels like a very, very small cold in my chest.
My lungs make a quick chirp at very end of deep breath but it’s intermittent. Rarely it will happen at the drs office they don’t tell me what it is but then kinda act like it’s my fault it does that and scold me “ did you know you have a wheeze, do you have a cold?” They are so accusatory so I say oh no problem here cus they make me feel like it’s a police imterigation and I’m about to get arrested for murder or something... yet I’m supposed to trust this jerk??? More than one dr reacted to me this way as if my license said Typhoid Mary or something and this was long before covid19. And other times I been in drs office and my lungs are perfectly behaved
May I ask whether these sounds are really abnormal human lung sounds or sounds from music tools that made to immitate them
Hello. I experience slight wheezing only while I sleep on my back. Last night I woke up to my chest making a slight grunting noise.(while sleeping on my back)
During the day I do not have any of these effects.
Anyone have a thought?
thank you! i really want to learn more about this kinda stuff, its so interesting to me. even though im 13 it still fascinates me.
Hi i feel crackling but more like phlegmy once every 2 minutes maybe. Maybe about 3 crackles. I have asthma but can breathe well with Symbicort. Also feel like I need to cough but no phlegm comes out? Can it be just stubborn phlegm?
I’ve just been paranoid because when I inhale all the way there is a single pop or two and it doesn’t happen as often when I lay down
Yeah same. Literally just one or two.
I have pops and they hurt, progressively getting worse over the past 7 months
Can you show us exactly where to place stethoscope for hearing each sound
I’ve got asthma and I keep having attacks were am just sitting down and I can’t get my breath it just comes on but these no wheezing why is this happening it happens around 3 times a day and it comes out of no wear just sat reading it comes on it’s scary??
I have daily asthma attacks when sedentary too. I find it comes on in the evening/night time. Do you also have allergies?
Rob Foster I have done thankyou
Michelle treat yourself for parasites. Black walnut tincture. Your getting inflammation in the lungs. Take natural anti-inflammatory. Look it up. I eat good quality black licorice. My son take quercetin and zinc. There are others. Find something that works for you.
Try burping if you can, it tends to remove air trapped around the diaphragm . . .its helped me loads when short of breath . . .
@@SobrietyandSolace me too.do u find it disturbing or are u used to it?
Its like vibration from the inside and when i exhale i get cough I don't know what is it can u please reply and tell what is it ??
If I had asthma I would know it right ? I cannot hear any sounds when taking deep breaths , I sometimes feel short of breath but also have anxiety , I keep thinking I have a issue but need clarification
you are just anxious, psychologically unwell, and this is not something to ignore. anxiety affects your life, you relationships, and you ability to work or study. you are not physically sick and don't need any medications, you just need to avoid any thing that affects you negatively or triggers anxiety. perform yoga, meditate. add few changes to your diet to make it healthy and drink more water. hope you be alright.
You will know when their is something wrong with your body. It is ALWAYS worth talking to a doctor about your concerns, asthma is always possible. Just open a conversation with your doc about it sweetie xx
I don't feel anything unusual in my lungs, but my friends keep noticing that I breathe so loud.
who here is now paranoid about their own breath, and thinking they got shortness of breath?
This weird huffing sound always came when I move my body ie chest area, sometimes when I. Lift dumbbells and swing it upwards. I feel there's a slight phlegm all the time, deep inside my chest. Can you suggest how to have this checked?
Same would you say your below avarage weight by any chance?
Same
@@DylanHunter07 I have that aswell is it normal? I’m abit underweight aswell
omg same
When I move or twist my chest area I get the same thing
I have crackle at end of FULL exhale , like when a Doctor ask you to do deep breathe so full exhale last 20% crackle. I feel like I swallowed water few times down wrong pipe and it's been there for months now. It doesn't seem to want to clear up.
hdtv00 has it cleared up or any update?
@@bigrob455 Doc gave steroid , cleared it but while taking it but came back slightly after doing 5 day run of meds
@@hdtv00 yeah same here Prednisone is only like a 5 day treatment
Did the doctor diagnose it? I have the same thing xx
hello sir my babies are 3 and half year .they have no problem in three years. last year we are go to india for two months in December. then started this problem with my babies. and now then my babies playing they started coughing and started sounds in cheast.coughing and in two minutes I notice sounds in cheast . then I gave him honey and they are absolutely fine . and it happen daily in one time in day . dr. checked bt she said it's not astma. she recommended medicine LUFFA . plz tell m what is this. astma?
Great diagram. Are you the artistic one Dr Matt?
It is odd that you showed many abnormal audio sound but reluctant to show the sound of a normal lungs. Is that so difficult to do?
Because normal lung sounds sound as you expect them too, air coming in or out. You can hear it from your self if you breath hardish
Have you ever heard of the crackles in the nasal area? I have this sound there nothing on sinus Ct scan or 3 scopes It is driving me crazy. I have recorded it. Can be heard outside of nose. If I lay on my right side, it goes away. Upright, back or left side it is there.
is it possible that the whistling sound during inhalation could be a reason of tonsillitis?
I have a question please, when I breathe out there is this squeaking/whistling sound coming out of my throat, and sometimes when I do something like climb up some stairs I get a little out of breath. About a mont and a half ago I had Influenza A and I had such bad wheezing during insparation and exparation that I was admitted to hospital where I did nebulizers routinely and the whistling just about started after I got out of hospital. I don’t know if this matters but I’m a 12 year old girl. Thanks a lot!! I LOVED your video!!
I am 13 yr old girl and I heard a weird noise in my lungs and I have had a cold for like 2-3 weeks. I hope its not Coronavirus. I cough a lot
Silvia Araujo poor you :( well coronavirus does come with a fever so you don’t have to worry 😃😃😃
@@purplebook6394 Are you okay
Silvia Araujo Yes!
@@purplebook6394 Ok that's good
Wow breathing sounds are terrifying
Gosh this channel is incredible! Love it! Thanks!
I don't understand the number of crackle. Please explain me 🙏.
Great Explanation !
I am having some random rumbling and groaning sounds. I don’t think it’s stomach related. But it sounds like a stomach rumble. It is not constant and caused by breathing, my breathing is silent
What type of sound is Acid Reflux most likely to cause? Seems that i have a wheeze or a Stridor on the inhale only and its very loud, you do not need a stethoscope to hear this. I'm not asking for a diagnosis but I do want to be able to explain this to my pulmonary Dr.
Hey, just tell them that your breathing sounds off and they'll listen and figure out themselves
A thought just came in mind, I may be wrong but wouldn’t another way to differentiate a pleural friction rub from a pericardial rub be to ask the patient to hold their breath for 5 seconds on auscultation? I am thinking the pleural rub would stop while the pericardial rub would continue.
My doctor told me fine crackling “comes with age”. He said my X-ray was clear. I was so sick in January and at the end could not cough up what I felt in my lungs. Hence my fine crackling when I inhale, as well as exhale. I haven’t been able to taste anything since that time as well.(terribly frustrating for a- “thank god I’m retired “- chef...😖)
Great video. Enjoyed it greatly. He should do more . Well versed for. Is laymen.

Dr, how about TB? We're going to hear coarse crackles right? What's the mechanism for that?
I am dealing with heavy breathing i inhale very hard and also exhale real hard what is causing that?
Kindly help ..same thimg happen m it's embarrassing in front of others .
Do u HV collection of all videos. I want to buy
Dont you have the crackles on the wrong name and sound . isnt fine crackle the coars and the coars the fine?
I have had a cold for 6 weeks and feel I have developed Stridor, no fever at all but I did have trouble taking full breaths and when I took a breath it was as if there was no Oxygen in my breath so I kept yawning all the time, the doctor didn't want to see me but checked with ENT and they said send me to A & E, when I went to there they wanted to me on a Covid 19 ward but said it sounded like Stridor, they said if I came back with no cough or breathless ness after 7 days then I would go on a standard ward, my breathing is getting back to normal but my Stridor is even louder and I only cough after eating meals . . . . I may get the hospital to check it out in a few more days but what ever this is, it's hard to shake off as I feel week all the time . . . . But no high temperature . . .
Are you okay?
u good now
Fantastic job!
Thank you so much for your efforts.
The examples of the noises are very muffled and does not give me at least anything to go by.very muffled and hard to tell exactly what it sounds like.
Thanks for info because it occurs with my son when he have a cold
How to differentiate between pleural friction rub and crackles?
