Bronchitis Overview
A simple reflex mechanism, such as a cough which
is meant to clear the air passages, can turn
into a troublesome disease like bronchitis if
left unheeded. Bronchitis is a respiratory
disorder in which the tubes that carry air to the
lungs are inflamed and irritated. This causes
the inner lining of these tubes to swell and
produce mucus, leading to a cough. Bronchitis
can be acute or chronic in nature, depending on
the duration of the illness. Acute bronchitis
mostly develops from a cold or other respiratory
infections, whereas chronic bronchitis results
from a more constant irritation of the bronchial
tubes, often caused by smoking. Homeopathy can
significantly help sufferers of both kinds of
bronchitis, and can provide gentle and safe
treatment.

What is Bronchitis?
Cough, phlegm and wheeze treat it with
ease! Inflammation/irritation of the tubes that
carry air to the lungs is called bronchitis. As
the inner lining of these tubes (bronchi) swells
up, it grows thicker and starts to produce mucus.
This results in the narrowing of the tubes,
causing cough with the production of thick
phlegm. Bronchitis can be acute or chronic in
nature. Acute bronchitis usually has a quick
onset and recovers within a span of six weeks.
Most cases recover without any problems,
especially if the patient has been otherwise
healthy prior to the attack. Chronic bronchitis,
on the other hand, tends to present as persistent
cough with mucus on most days for three months
of the year for at least two consecutive years.
Chronic bronchitis is more serious in nature and
requires long term treatment. In chronic
bronchitis, the damage to the bronchi is more
deep seated and frequently occurs on account of
smoking. Acute bronchitis tends to be very
common amongst both children and adults, though
the prevalence rates are higher in children
younger than five years. Chronic bronchitis, on
the other hand, is more common in people older
than 40 years.
