What Treatment Is Suggested For Bronchitis?
My mom has bronchitis. She is 65. She got a steroid shot and was put on antibiotics Saturday night. It is Wednesday and she feels better but her throat hurts and she can't stop sweating. She wants to go to work tomorrow but is embarrassed by the sweating. Is this normal?
