Can Bronchitis Reoccur As Cough With Other Symptoms Seems To Be Returning?
I went to the doctor about 4 weeks ago and was told I had bronchitis when I went back to make sure the "spot on my lung" was gone they said it was but I've still been coughing and in the past few days the other symptoms I had seem to be coming back. Can I get bronchitis again this quickly
Thanks for your question on Healthcare Magic. I can understand your concern. Yes, bronchitis can be recurrent. So better to consult pulmonologist and get done clinical examination of respiratory system and PFT (Pulmonary Function Test). PFT will not only diagnose bronchitis but it will also tell you about severity of the disease and treatment is based on severity only. You will need inhaled bronchodilators (formoterol or salmeterol) and inhaled corticosteroid (ICS) (budesonide or fluticasone). Don't worry, you will be alright with all these. Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
