Inflammation of bronchioles is bronchiolitis.
It is called bronchiolitis and needs prescribed medication. It is always unpleasant and is particularly nasty in children.
Bronchiolitis
It is common in small children, generally caused by a virus and usually resolves on its own without much treatment.
Occasionally a child must be admitted to the hospital for oxygen and observation and when this happens it is common to give medications such as steroids and inhaled albuterol but they have been shown to not do much.
Any word in anatomy that ends in -itis means an inflammation of that part. In this case, a person's bronchioles that are inflamed has what is called bronchiolitis.
