At Michoes Medical Centre, we understand the importance of quick and effective bronchoscopic care. Our experienced team, led by Dr. Michael Emusugut, is dedicated to providing you with the best possible treatment for your respiratory issues.
A bronchoscopy is a medical device that lets doctors look into your lungs and airways. The procedure uses a thin tube with a small camera and light at the end. The doctor inserts it through your nose or mouth, down your throat, and into your lungs. Most of the time, the tube is soft and flexible. The doctor might use a stiff tube if there’s bleeding in your lungs or an object in your airway.
Doctors use bronchoscopy to find the cause of a lung problem. You might get it if you have: A chronic cough, chest pain, or difficulty breathing. Your doctor will give you instructions to help manage these symptoms.
A bronchoscopy is usually safe, but there are a few risks. If your oxygen levels drop during the procedure, the doctor may give you oxygen. Afterward, you could get a fever or pneumonia. Or you might notice some bleeding. It’s rare, but a bronchoscopy can cause a collapsed lung.
