According to the resonance sound produced, the disease is diagnosed and then the treatment is selected according to the disease. In order to treat the hyper resonance, the underlying disease should be treated first. Hyper resonance is also a diagnostic method for the above mentioned diseases. Other than these types of pneumothorax causing excessive air in the chest region and producing hyper resonance, lobectomy and pneumonectomy also cause hyper resonance. Pneumothorax, tension pneumothorax, spontaneous pneumothorax, catamenial pneumothorax and latrogenic pneumothorax. Pneumothorax are of different types leading to hyper resonance. Pneumothorax (air filled excessively in the chest region).Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease COPD.The main diseases leading to hyper resonance are as follows: Hyper resonance can occur as a symptom of many lung diseases. Pneumothorax is the only lung disease showing hyper resonance in patient. Fever can also occur along with dry cough. The patient may suffer from cough and phlegm in the chest region most of the time, the cough is dry. A schematic drawing of a bulla and bleb, the two abnormalities of lungs may get rupture and lead to the pneumothorax producing hyper resonance.

The hyper resonance may show a collapsed lung or a condition named pneumothorax. The chest on hitting feel hollow producing high resonance sound. Hyper resonance itself is the main symptom behind of many lung diseases. index finger and middle finger are strike at the chest and abdominal region to check the type of resonance sound produced. The hyper resonance is checked via percussion method. The sound produced is different in every type. flat or extremely dull sounds, dull or thud like sound, tympanic sounds and hyper resonant sound. There are many type of resonance sounds produce on hitting i.e. Contrary to hyper resonance the low resonance sound produce on hitting shows the pleural effusion and many other lung diseases. The hyper resonance sound produced in the chest shows the presence of excessive air present in the chest cavity. The resonance sound which occurred in pneumothorax is not normal sound but it is like hollow, high and drum like sound. The hyper resonance if present on the left side of chest indicates the presence of pneumothorax. The changes in the resonance upon hitting can indicate a medical condition the patient suffering from. The extreme level of resonance produced along with sound on hitting the chest and abdominal area is known as hyper resonance. Hyper resonance is the sound heard by tapping on the surface of chest and abdominal region.
