How To Heal Bronchitis

Causes

 

Acute bronchitis may become chronic if it is not properly treated and relieved.  When a cold is allowed to continue, the infection may extend down into the lungs and become chronic.  Occasionally, if it is not cured, it may encourage the development of tuberculosis or some other serious chronic lung disease.

 

Some forms of stomach trouble may be a cause of bronchitis and even pneumonia.  This is particularly true of those persons who bring up acid and other stomach contents into the mouth while asleep, and then aspirate it into their lungs.

 

Symptoms

 

Almost continual coughing; coughing up quantities of mucus and phlegm; shortness of breath and wheezing.  These symptoms may become very severe and disabling.

 

Testing for Causes:

 

·        Food and environmental allergies: blood or electrodermal testing
