Bronchitis
Bronchitis is a health condition where the mucus membrane of your lungs becomes inflamed. This inflammation can cause the airways to become very narrow of completed shut off, which
can in turn cause breathlessness and unending coughing spells. A person can suffer from acute bronchitis or chronic bronchitis. While acute bronchitis is more temporary nature – it may
last for about 1 to 3 weeks – chronic bronchitis can last for a long time – about 3 months to as long as two years.
When it is not treated in a timely manner, acute bronchitis can turn chronic. When a person experience suffocation and has unbearable chest pain, then it is important for them to
consult a doctor immediately to identify the problem. Most of the times, acute bronchitis is caused because of a viral infection in the lung. Industrial pollution is one of the biggest
factors of acute bronchitis. Heavy smokers also stand a high chance of developing the disease.
Homeopathy is an effective way of curing the problem and avoiding the recurrence of the disease. It helps fortifying the immune system so that it does not get weakened by repeated
attacks of viral infections of the lung.

Doctors generally diagnose bronchitis by asking questions regarding the length of period since you have been experience coughing.
Questions may also be related to your lifestyle like your smoking habits which is an important factor in developing bronchitis. Your
medical history and the frequency of developing cold and flus can also help doctors understand the causes of your health condition. Since

the amount of mucus and oxygen in your body. Blood tests can also be conducted to find out any other reasons for the problem.
