regarding fluid as a casue of crackles edit
Crackles are no longer thought to result from fluid in the airways--rather, the explosive opening of small airways is the source of the crackling sounds. --Doctortomwiki 18:48, 22 November 2006 (UTC)
Audio edit
A recording of this sound would definitely add to this article. There is an external link to a sound file but a freely licensed clip would be best. Cburnett 15:50, 27 September 2007 (UTC) I believe done back in 2010

Rales → Crackles — "Rales" is strongly discouraged, and is not used by the article itself. Mikael Häggström (talk) 05:13, 12 March 2010 (UTC)
I'm just wondering why the article is titled "Rales" when the article specifically states that it is infrequent (except in the United States), and its usage is strongly discouraged. The article does not even use "rales;" "crackles" is used over 10 times and "rales" is only used in the context of its disuse (outside of America) and its professional discouragement. I'll wait a few days; if anyone who knows more about the subject, please comment. Otherwise I'll nominate it for a move.

Why does "subcrepitant" redirect here? edit
Not used or explained in article. 86.159.197.174 (talk) 17:00, 26 August 2014 (UTC)
Crackles seems to be uncommon in British medical usage. Is there another term in use? In ictu oculi (talk) 07:50, 19 September 2017 (UTC)
