Pulmonary edema & cardiac asthma..?


what is exactely pulmonary edema (cuz & where fluid accumulates), is it = alveolar edema? & what's the difference between it &:
1)pulmonary congestion
2)brochial endothelial edema (cardic asthma)

Pulmonary edema creates pulmonary congestion..the word refers to the lungs. Is just a bit difficult to separate the alveoli from lung function. Bronshial endothelial edema would create the same congestion factor in the bronchi, which branches out at the tree and now run into the combination of the two.. Edema of the entire breathing channels. How the heart asthma can be considered a diagnosis, is a bit thin.. A heart problem could be causing the edema but few hearts have asthma. May want to look up the definition of asthma.
