1:51 Wheezing 6:04 Stridor 8:27 Crackles 13:40 Pleural friction rub Great video. love the audio examples!
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.
Thank you for not only doing a fantastic job, but being enthusiastic. Keep up the good work.
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 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!

Wonderful video, thank you for showing the area of the respiratory system affected as well.
I am a nursing student and this has helped me so much! Thank you :)
I'm here because my lungs sound like a rock tumbler when I exhale. You?
Crisp and detailed info! Thank you so much sir!
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.
An other very clear video! Well explained 👍
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 🙏
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!
Thanks a lot, you really blessed me.
Its incredible these two teaches you biology better than school 🤣 thanks docs!!

who here is now paranoid about their own breath, and thinking they got shortness of breath?
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

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.
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.
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.

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.

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
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.
Thank you very much Dr Matt. Just done this at university for advanced clinical practitioner course. Books, demonstrations and videos are the perfect combination.
You're great!! Thanks
Gosh this channel is incredible! Love it! Thanks!
Thank you so much for your efforts.
Well done!
Fantastic job!
Awesome video 😍
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
Great Explanation !

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
this video has been so helpful thank you.
Awesome presentation, would be better if you could've add normal breath sound along each abnormal sound
I don't feel anything unusual in my lungs, but my friends keep noticing that I breathe so loud.
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
Thanks for info because it occurs with my son when he have a cold
Nice explanation sir Thanks 😊
Thank you.
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.
Thanks You're awesome.
EXCELLENT VIDEO!!!
Great diagram. Are you the artistic one Dr Matt?

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.
Thank you so much 🌸🌸🌸
is it possible that the whistling sound during inhalation could be a reason of tonsillitis?
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?
@britanynoel8345

To answer your question, I am a respiratory therapist, and we would say “tight” or “diminished.” We would also just say little air movement.
Thanks so much
I have asthma, and I sound like a squeaky toy when I exhale (but it comes and goes). I've had this my entire adult life (so, almost 50 years) so it's not especially worrisome except when it keeps me from falling asleep. I've never used my inhaler for that, but it sounds like maybe that would help. I always thought of my inhaler as what you use when you're gasping for air. That narrowing of the smaller tubes is like pulling the opening of a balloon tight to make it squeal as you let the air out!
Amazing thank you
Dr, how about TB? We're going to hear coarse crackles right? What's the mechanism for that?
time stamps would bring this video from 95% to 100% effective
Good job
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 don’t mean to be insensitive but stridor sounds like a demon from my nightmares hovering over my face. I also thought wheezing was a high pitch noise like the wind when it blows really hard. Oh it’s deep.

You are correct. The sounds are scary.

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.

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
thanks doc
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
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.
How to differentiate between pleural friction rub and crackles?
Very useful info
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

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.

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
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
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.
