The airway passages, called bronchi, are often prone to viral and bacterial infections. After a
common cold or u, the pathogen often settles in the bronchi and causes an acute infection
called bronchitis. There are symptoms such as severe cough, mild fever, and chest tightness and
there is pain accompanied by fatigue and exhaustion. Over 90 percent of acute bronchitis is
caused by viral infections that do not respond to antibiotics, the standard bronchitis
treatment. Chronic bronchitis, on the other hand, is most often found in smokers, people
suffering from asthma, and individuals whose immunity is compromised.  Take a look at some of
the pronounced symptoms listed here.

Symptomatically, chronic bronchitis can get worse at least two or more times every year, and
they become worse in the winter months. The right diagnosis is important as a persistent cough
is often confused with symptoms of other conditions, such as asthma or pneumonia.

Bronchitis may be acute or chronic, nd out the difference between the two:

Acute Bronchitis

Acute bronchitis is a short version of the illness followed by a cold or viral infection, such as
the  u. This condition generates cough with mucus, chest discomfort or soreness, fever, and,
sometimes, shortness of breath. Acute bronchitis usually lasts a few days and stretches up to
weeks.

Chronic Bronchitis

Chronic bronchitis is a serious illness and is characterized by a persistent, mucus-producing

cough that may last longer than 3 months out of the year and even stretch out to 2 years. People
with chronic bronchitis suffer from different variations of breathing dif culties, and symptoms
usually get better and worse during different parts of the year.

If chronic bronchitis occurs with emphysema, it leads to a condition known as chronic

obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).

According to Chinese medicine, respiratory infections cause heat in the lungs and cause lung
congestion because of exterior pathogens. The lung-large intestine network de ciency
suppresses immunity, especially in chronic cases. There are several techniques to treat this
condition such as cupping, and acupuncture to help relax. Cupping is a technique that uses
suction cups on the upper back, and acupuncture helps relax the bronchial constriction and
provides relief to the cough-like condition. There is also fast-acting herbal therapy which helps
remove the pathogen, clear the lungs to minimize the cough and relieve bronchitis. When
treating chronic bronchitis, it is absolutely essential to support the healthy functioning of the
lung, stomach, and kidney networks, and support these type of treatments with the right dietary
and lifestyle advice. Giving up smoking is the rst stepping stone to recovery from acute
bronchitis.

Chronic bronchitis is a serious condition and it requires a collaborative effort. In these cases, it
is important the patient works with pulmonary specialists to think of and implement a
comprehensive treatment plan integrating Western and Eastern medicine.

Four years ago I experienced a severe breathing problems. A year later, it worsened
and I was diagnosed of COPD. I came across Herbal HealthPoint (ww w.
herbalhealthpoint. c om) December, 2018 and learnt about their successful herbal
therapy for COPD. I immediately started on the COPD treatment; i began to notice a
reduction in symptoms till it all vanished. I feel better and breath better. I Just wanted
to share for people suffering from this horrible lungs disease.
