Bronchitis is inflammation or swelling of the bronchial tubes (bronchi), the air passages between the nose and the lungs. More specifically, bronchitis is when the lining of the bronchial tubes becomes inflamed or infected.Bronchitis is caused by viruses, bacteria, and other particles that irritate the bronchial tubes. E

xposure to tobacco smoke, exposure to pollutants or solvents, and gastroesophageal reflux disease (

GERD) can also cause acute bronchitis.

Air pollution, dust, toxic gases, and other industrial fumes are known to be responsible for the condition.

If you have a chronic bronchitis, like those ones caused by a long-term use of tobbaco smoking, unfortunately there is no cure for it, but you can use (continuosly) Acetylcisteine, to control a chronic bronchitis. It's very important that you consult a specialized medical doctor before taking this medicine, because there are other types of bronchitis,

which require other types of remedies.

There are a couple of ways this can happen. One way is that you happen to catch the virus or bacteria and you get sick. But more common is that you get a cold or the flu, which infects the upper airways, and your body cannot beat it so the infection moves down into the bronchi, causing bronchitis.

You will find that in general, smokers are more prone to bronchitis as the cigarette smoke aggrevates the bronchiolles. If you are a smoker and have just had a cold or the flu or some form of infection chances are that you may develop bronchitis if your previous illness was not treated correctly. As for non-smokers, having a cold then going out and partying and not resting during this cold may lead to infection and the infection may affect the bronchiolles leading to bronchitis.

Bronchitis can be bacterial or viral. The best way is to stay healthy by eating a proper diet and getting exercise. Avoiding people who have it is a good idea too.

Don't smoke is the number one preventative measure. Equally, if you do get it the disease's progression can be slowed by stopping.
