Bronchitis is a common yet potentially serious respiratory condition that affects the bronchial tubes, the airways that carry air to your lungs. It is characterized by inflammation of the bronchial lining, leading to persistent cough, chest discomfort, mucus production, and breathing difficulties. At Helios Lung & Ortho Center, Kondapur, we offer expert diagnosis and comprehensive treatment for both acute and chronic bronchitis, helping patients breathe better and recover faster.
Acute Bronchitis – Often triggered by viral infections such as the common cold or flu. Symptoms typically last for a few days to a couple of weeks.
Chronic Bronchitis – A more serious, long-term condition, usually caused by smoking, air pollution, or occupational exposure. It is part of the broader condition called COPD (Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease).
Persistent cough with mucus (white, yellow, or green)
Shortness of breath
Chest tightness or discomfort
Fatigue
Wheezing
Mild fever and chills (in acute cases)
If you experience these symptoms for more than a week, it’s essential to consult a pulmonologist for timely evaluation.
