Is known that bronchitis can appear because of an infection from bacteria or virus, and these are causes that make this illness contagious. Patients with bronchitis have inflammation of the bronchial tubes, or bronchi located in the chest of human body, and this can result in discharge of phlegm or sputum.  Some causes of bronchitis are dust and air pollution, but especially smoking. It was seen that cigarettes smokers are the most affected by this illness.  Usually bronchitis appears in winter, but when it becomes chronic, it can continue during the year. :D.

There are a Lot of Signs of Bronchitis
We can mention severe cough, that appears during the morning of the winter months, while coughing there is a large amount of cough that comes, and another sign of being infected with this disease is yellow sputum discharged during coughing. It must be said that patients with bronchitis complain tightness of the chest, they get fever when infected, and there can appear breathlessness, which will lead to exertion.

To treat bronchitis, you can use some home remedies like honey with a tea spoon of ginger juice, or a liquid mixture of tulsi, ginger and black pepper in same proportion and must be taken 20-25 ml 3 times a day.  You can also increase the intake of water, because that will help to make the mucus in the lungs thin and in this way cough clears out easily, and while going to bed or before breakfast you can take with sugar and honey the mixture that results after boiling 1 tea spoon of Jushanda in a cup of water.  You should also avoid smoking, because it irritates lungs and slows down healing; in order to relax sore chest muscles and obtain faster relief you can massage your chest and back muscles, and it was seen that Mulathi if chewed for some time helps.  It is important to know that we must overcome the sources of irritation and infection in the throat, nose, sinuses, mouth, and bronchial tubes. Staying indoor during the cold weather may be of real help, and also avoiding any sort of polluted air and dusty working conditions. Quality is better than quantity. It is of no use writing numerous pages of nonsense for the reader. Instead, it is better to write a short, and informative article on specific subjects like Bronchitis. People tend to enjoy it more.
