[size=4][b]Is Bronchitis Infectious - Forms and Types of Bronchitis[/b][/size][hr]
Quote:Bronchitis is a common respiratory disease that involves inflammation and often infection of the bronchial mucosal membranes. The symptoms generated by bronchitis vary according to the causes and the seriousness of the disease. Judging by the intensity and the duration of the disease, bronchitis can be either acute or chronic.

Unlike acute bronchitis, chronic forms of the disease generate persistent, recurrent symptoms. Although the clinical manifestations of chronic bronchitis are less intense, this type of disease is very difficult to treat. Even if patients with chronic bronchitis respond well to specific medical treatments, they often experience relapse after completing their prescribed course of medications. Chronic bronchitis can last for around three months, regularly reoccurring on the period of two years or even more. Chronic bronchitis often involves the lungs, and it can lead to serious pulmonary diseases. In fact, chronic bronchitis is one of the most commonly diagnosed types of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Chronic bronchitis has a very high incidence in smokers and it is also known as "the smokers' disease". It is not necessary that only the learned can write about Www Bronchitis. As long as one ahs a flair for writing, and an interest for gaining information on Www Bronchitis, anyone can write about it.

[size=large][b]Acute Bronchitis Has a Rapid Onset and Generates Intense Symptoms[/b][/size][hr]However, most people with acute bronchitis respond well to specific treatments and are usually recovered quickly and permanently, with minimal risks of relapse. Acute bronchitis is very common among children and thus it is also commonly referred to as "childhood bronchitis". This type of bronchitis may last from a few days to 2-3 weeks. Acute bronchitis is highly treatable and it rarely leads to complications. However, in the absence of medical treatment, acute bronchitis may eventually become chronic, or it can further lead to pulmonary diseases (pneumonia, emphysema). Smile

Bronchitis is a very common respiratory condition and it can be occur in anyone, regardless of sex and age. However, the people who are exposed the most to developing forms of bronchitis are smokers, people with other respiratory illnesses or people with weak immunes system. Smokers usually develop chronic bronchitis, a form of disease that needs ongoing treatment. The main factors that are considered to contribute to the occurrence of bronchitis are: smoking, prolonged exposure to irritants (dust, pollen, chemicals, pollutants), immunologic deficiencies, genetic predisposition to developing respiratory conditions (in the case of chronic bronchitis) and infection with viruses and bacteria.

Chronic bronchitis symptoms are usually of moderate intensity, but they are persistent and have a recidivating character. Unlike acute bronchitis, chronic bronchitis is an infectious disease and needs specific, long-term medical treatment. It is very important not to interrupt the treatment prescribed by the doctor even if chronic bronchitis symptoms are considerably ameliorated. If the medical treatment is prematurely stopped, the illness will quickly reoccur and chronic bronchitis symptoms can become even intensify. Opportunity knocks once. So when we got the opportunity to write on Bronchitis Caused, we did not let the opportunity slip from our hands, and got down to writing on Bronchitis Caused. Smile

General bronchitis symptoms are: cough, wheezing, throat pain, difficulty breathing, chest discomfort and soreness when breathing, fatigue and headache. If these bronchitis symptoms are accompanied by sweating, high fever and nausea, it means that the illness is caused by infection with bacteria. Bronchitis symptoms that might indicate an aggravation of the illness are: severe cough that contains yellowish mucus, spitting blood. Coordinating matter regarding to Bronchitis Acute Bronchitis took a lot of time. However, with the progress of time, we not only gathered more matter, we also learnt more about Bronchitis Acute Bronchitis.

[size=4][b]Cephalexin Bronchitis Mediion - Bronchitis and Natural Cures[/b][/size][hr]Homeopathic remedies are claimed by many to be better than medical science if only through their claim of being Natural. Take for example homeopathy.

[list][*]Trying to treat bronchitis with natural cures or remedies may result in respiratory pneumonia.[*]A medical doctor can quickly diagnose bronchitis and prescribe antibiotics when necessary to control the infection.[*]Writing something about Bronchitis Asthma seemed to be something illogical in the beginning.[*]However, with the progress of matter, it seemed logical.[*]Matter just started pouring in, to give you this finished product.[/list]

[size=large][b]This Isn't to Suggest that All Home Cures are of No Value[/b][/size][hr]Many such as hot tea and lemon can work wonders in calming a hacking cough. Medicated warm mist vaporizers can loosen congestion an aid in breathing. Neither of these home remedies however can take the place of an appropriate antibiotic treatment.

Quote:The problem with the claims of many so called natural remedies is their effectiveness has never been verified by any scientific research. Consider homeopathy is based on an 18th century theory that apparently was NOT effective as the hospital wards were filled with patients that WERE cured with a little invention of modern medicine called antibiotics. We had at first written a rough assignment on Acute Bronchitis. Then after a few improvisions and enhancements here and there, we have ended up with this end product.

[size=large][b]Obtaining the Benefits of Medical Science Makes You a Wise and Caring Parent[/b][/size][hr]This isn't to say that homeopathy is completely worthless. Many symptoms such as sinusitis and a bronchial cough can be treated without expensive pharmaceutical medications. Still, if you're a parent, wouldn't it be great to have some effective cough medicine to relieve your child's hacking cough in the middle of the night if the homeopathic remedy doesn't work?

Simple definition of bronchitis is inflammation of the bronchial tubes that send air into the lungs. There are two types of bronchitis, acute and chronic. Acute bronchitis is usually associated with a respiratory infection which itself can be either viral or bacterial.

[size=large][b]Had a Very Bad Bout of Bronchitis Years Ago, Which Led to a Chronic Asthma Condition[/b][/size][hr]I lost 2 stone in weight over a 2 month period and I had little idea of how to deal with the debilitating illness...I was frequently struggling to be able to breathe. It's not something I would like to go through again, but it took me the best part of two years to get to grips with the condition.

[list][*]As a child I often had winter colds that developed into bronchitis, with the inevitable regular visit to the doctor.[*]Every time antibiotics were prescribed, why I do not know, but I believe this was what led to me developing asthma later in life.[*]Colds are caused by viruses and are not killed by antibiotics, which kill bacteria, all bacteria even the necessary one's that help with digestion.[*]In addition to weakening the digestive system the bodies immune system is also compromised as it has lost a vital ally in fighting yeast and fungi.[*]These are always present in the body but the good gut bacteria keep them in check.[*]Mainstream medicine now recognises the effect Candida can have on a compromised immune system, although you might still counter some scepticism.[*]Alternative medicine has known about it for a long time.[*]If you do have to use antibiotics then it is sensible to repopulate your gut with good bacteria.[*]There are now plenty of probiotic products available, many advertised on the TV.[*]The more you read about Cold Bronchitis, the more you get to understand the meaning of it.[*]So if you read this article and other related articles, you are sure to get the required amount of matter for yourself[/list]

Also try adding garlic, onions, ginger, chillies, cloves and liquorice (not the sweets, but do not take if you have high blood pressure) to your diet, as they all act as decongestants. The following herbs are also very useful: astragalus, coltsfoot, echinacea, elderberry, elecampane, ephedra, eucalyptus, fenugreek, gingko, goldenseal, lobelia, mullein oil and reishi.

[size=large][b]Please Feel Free to Let Me Have Any Tips of Your Own[/b][/size][hr]I have a keen interest in using natural remedies and have had years of experience in using herbs and homeopathy. Learning about things is what we are living here for now. So try to get to know as much about everything, including Cold Bronchitis whenever possible.

[size=large][b]Through Experience and from Reading Many Health Books I Now Know Why My Colds Developed[/b][/size][hr]Into bronchitis. I know it's a damn nuisance but we cannot avoid colds. However, we can make life much easier for ourselves. People always think that they know everything about everything; however, it should be known that no one is perfect in everything. There is never a limit to learning; even learning about Cold Bronchitis.

The first step is to remove wheat and milk products from the diet (before you panic, this is only a temporary measure). Why you ask?

I know some of you will be sceptical, but what have you got to lose...just try it and see. Isn't it wonderful that we can now access information about anything, including Bronchitis form the Internet without the hassle of going through books and magazines for matter!

[size=large][b]Many Patients Who Suffer from Respiratory Conditions are Diagnosed With Bronchitis[/b][/size][hr]Bronchitis is a very common respiratory illness and it can occur in anyone, regardless of age. However, bronchitis has a higher incidence in smokers, people with respiratory insufficiency and people with weak immune system. The problem with bronchitis is that it generates symptoms that have an unspecific character. The symptoms of bronchitis are also characteristic to other respiratory illnesses and in many cases they can be misleading in establishing the appropriate diagnose.

[list][*]Bronchitis treatments for chronic forms of the illness often include bronchodilators such as albuterol and ipratropium.[*]These are inhaled medicines that eliminate the excess mucus responsible for obstruction of the respiratory tract and shortness of breathing.[*]Bronchitis treatments can also include steroids for strengthening the body's defenses against bacteria and viruses.[/list]

You are suffering from viral forms of acute bronchitis, it is advised to rest properly, drink plenty of fluids (especially if you have fever) and use a vaporizer or humidifier in your bedroom (dry air can cause throat soreness and difficulty breathing). Avoid using cough suppressants! They prevent the elimination of mucus and can cause serious complications. You can help in decongesting the airways clogged with mucus by taking a hot shower or bath. The more you read about Breathing Bronchitis, the more you get to understand the meaning of it. So if you read this article and other related articles, you are sure to get the required amount of matter for yourself

[list][*]The symptoms of bronchitis persist for more than 2 days, it is strongly recommended to see a doctor.[*]He will perform a physical examination or laboratory tests in order to reveal the nature of the illness.[*]The doctor will only prescribe a specific bronchitis treatment if the illness is serious and caused by infection with bacteria.[*]When doing an assignment on Bronchitis Medical, it is always better to look up and use matter like the one given here.[*]Your assignment turns out to be more interesting and colorful this way.[/list]

Even if the illness is correctly diagnosed, prescribing the best bronchitis treatment is a challenging task for doctors. Antibiotics are often part of bronchitis treatments. However, if bronchitis is caused by viruses, it is considered that bronchitis treatments with antibiotics are ineffective in overcoming the illness. In some viral forms of acute bronchitis, medical treatment isn't required at all, as the illness clears on itself in a few weeks. Even if the illness is caused by bacteria, bronchitis treatments with antibiotics can cause a lot of harm to the organism if they are administered continuously. Learning about things is what we are living here for now. So try to get to know as much about everything, including Bronchitis Symptom whenever possible.

Patients that are following bronchitis treatments must avoid exposure to irritants and pollutants (smoke, dust, chemicals, astringent substances, vapors of alcohol or vapors of gasoline). Also, self-medication should be avoided, as inappropriate medicines can cause an aggravation of the illness. Avoid taking antibiotics without the doctor's permission and remember not to give aspirin to small children. For adults, aspirin or acetaminophen can temporarily relieve fever and other symptoms, but it is very important to see a doctor if the symptoms aggravate. People always think that they know everything about everything; however, it should be known that no one is perfect in everything. There is never a limit to learning; even learning about Bronchitis Treatment.
