What Is Wegener's Granulomatosis?
3. Symptoms
Symptoms of Wegener’s granulomatosis can develop gradually over a matter of months. In other cases, the condition can come on far more suddenly. The first signs of the condition will generally involve the throat, lungs, and sinuses. The symptoms will likely be mild to begin with, but they can also worsen quickly.
When the symptoms do show, they are likely to include coughing. In some cases, the patient will cough up phlegm, and there may also sometimes be blood in the phlegm. The patient is also likely to be short of breath, and they may wheeze as they try and draw in air.
