Are Sinus Infection And Bronchitis Contagious?

I was treated for sinus infection with the start of bronchitus due to inhaling paint fumes while painting lawn ornaments indoors. Is this contagious to anyone else? Infant to adult. They weren t in the house with me just visiting several days later.

Hi.
Thanks for your query.
Your bronchitis and sinus infection were secondary to the paint fumes and the infection should have been contained off long ago.
This will not be contagious to someone visiting you several days later.
So stop worrying.
Complete your courses and get well.

I hope this answer helps you.
