Brochitis Disorder:
Bronchitis is an inflammation of the bronchial tubes, or bronchi, that bring air into the lungs. Inflammation is a chemical reaction in the body that produces redness, swelling, and pain.
Bronchitis Can Be Caused By:
- Viruses
- Bacteria
- Smoking
- Breathing in certain kinds of irritating chemicals
When the cells lining the bronchi are irritated, the tiny hairs (cilia) that normally trap and eliminate things from the outside stop working. Formation of material associated with irritation (inflammation) also increases; causing the passages to become clogged.
There Are Two Types Of Bronchitis:
- Acute bronchitis usually lasts only a few days. However, it can last for several weeks. The symptoms include a persistant cough. It is often caused by a viral infection and may begin after you develop a cold or sore throat. It usually produces no long-lasting, harmful effects.
- Chronic bronchitis is diagnosed when a person has too much phlegm. Abnormal amounts of mucus; phlegm coughed up through the mouth is called sputum in the airways, which leads to a persistent, productive cough. An individual is considered to have chronic bronchitis if cough and sputum. Phlegm that is coughed up from the lungs. Matter that is coughed up from the lungs are present on most days for a minimum of three months for at least two successive years, or for six months during one year.
