Tracheal Stenosis treatment in León

Tracheal stenosis is a narrowing of the trachea, the tube that carries air to the lungs, which reduces the space through which air flows when breathing.

Common symptoms:

• Difficulty breathing, especially with exertion.
• Noise or wheezing when inhaling.
• Persistent cough or a sensation of choking.

When to see a doctor? When breathing is accompanied by noticeable sounds or it is hard to take in air in a sustained way, it is reasonable to seek an evaluation.

Which specialist treats it? The cardiovascular and thoracic surgeon is the one who evaluates disorders of the trachea and the structures of the chest. If you notice difficulty breathing that does not ease, it is a good idea to raise it during a visit to learn its origin and options.
