Abnormal Breath Sounds

One may produce abnormal breath sounds if an infection or some other disease condition is going on inside the lungs. They are more clearly heard if a doctor puts a stethoscope on one's chest and try to listen to the breath sounds through that. The sounds may vary for different lung problems.
