What is difference between secondary bacterial infection of acute bronchitis and bacterial infection?
Secondary bacterial infections of the bronchi is an opportunistic infection where the normal bacteria that live in the nasal/oral region of the pharynx are able to infect the lungs. This usually occurs following a viral infection since the virus typically infects and kills the cells that make up interior lining of the bronchioles. This then causes a breach in this barrier which allow the bacteria to invade the tissues underneath and cause a response (bronchitis) by the immune system.
