Definition
Plural of fremitus, which is a vibrating sensation felt through the chest wall when a person speaks or coughs, used by doctors to diagnose lung problems.
Etymology
From Latin fremitus meaning 'a roaring or murmuring sound,' derived from fremere 'to roar or murmur.' The term entered medical vocabulary in the 18th century to describe palpable vibrations detected during physical examination.
Kelly Says
Doctors literally feel the vibrations of your voice traveling through your lungs and chest bones—it's like your body is a musical instrument and fremitus is how they 'hear' what's happening inside without opening you up!
