Yes, it is possible to have bronchiectasis and pneumonia simultaneously. Bronchiectasis is a chronic condition characterized by the abnormal widening of the airways, making individuals more susceptible to lung infections like pneumonia. When pneumonia occurs in someone with bronchiectasis, it can exacerbate respiratory symptoms and complicate the management of both conditions. Prompt medical attention is essential to address both issues effectively.
