Bronchitis is an inflammation of the bronchial tubes (airways in the lungs) that causes cough, mucus production, chest tightness, and breathing difficulties. It can be acute (short-term) or chronic (long-lasting).
Common symptoms include persistent cough, mucus (phlegm) production, chest tightness, wheezing, fatigue, and shortness of breath.
Yes. Physiotherapy techniques such as chest physiotherapy, breathing exercises, postural drainage, and airway clearance methods help improve lung function, reduce cough, and ease breathing.
Bronchitis mainly affects the airways and causes mucus build-up, while asthma is caused by airway inflammation and narrowing. Pneumonia affects the lungs themselves and usually comes with fever and severe infection.
Acute bronchitis caused by viral or bacterial infections can be contagious, while chronic bronchitis (usually related to smoking or long-term lung irritation) is not contagious.
Acute bronchitis often improves within 2–3 weeks, while chronic bronchitis may require long-term management, lifestyle changes, and at home rehabilitation support.
Avoiding smoking, staying hydrated, improving posture, practicing breathing exercises, and strengthening lung capacity through physiotherapy can help speed recovery.
