Bronchitis Explained
Bronchitis is inflammation of the airways in the lungs, generally after a cold or flu, and it produces a cough that may last for weeks.
What Can Cause Bronchitis
Mostly viruses, which is why antibiotics generally do not help. Smoking, pollution and dust make it worse.
Prevention Tips
Avoid smoking and smoky places, wash hands, treat colds early and keep up with vaccines recommended for you.
How Bronchitis Is Treated
Your doctor judges how likely it is to be viral, looks for pneumonia warning signs and recommends treatment. An antibiotic is only suggested for a probable bacterial infection. Options may include rest, fluids, cough soothers and, only if a bacterial infection is likely, antibiotics.
- Rest and drink plenty of fluids
- Avoid smoke and dusty places
- Simple painkillers for fever or aches as directed on the pack
