The full form of LRTI is Lower Respiratory Tract Infection.Lower Respiratory Tract Infection refers to bacterial or viral infections like bronchitis, Pneumonia, and Bronchiolitis. LTRI is diagnosed by looking at the symptoms and performing a physical examination. Sometimes, the doctor may order a chest x-ray for a better understanding. Most of the time, you will be given antibiotics for the treatment. Sometimes, you may have to take nebulization to get instant relief when suffering from Lower Respiratory Tract Infection.
Doctors may also use LRTI for Ligament Reconstruction and Tendon Interposition.Ligament Reconstruction and Tendon Interposition is a surgical procedure performed when the patient has been diagnosed with basilar joint arthritis or arthritis of the thumb. In this procedure, the body’s tissues address the problem. The ligament is recreated, and the procedure provides long-term relief to the patients. Since no foreign tissue is used, the chances of complication or graft failure are impossible. The recovery time after the procedure varies between six and eight weeks.
