Bronchitis Treatment - Homeopathic Treatment of Bronchitis

    
Do you have a cold, chest discomfort and an irritating cough that may be lasting for weeks? If these symptoms sound familiar then you possibly have Bronchitis. Bronchitis is swelling of the Bronchial tubes or air passages that extend from the windpipe to your lungs. When these air passages are irritated, thick mucus forms in them. The mucus clogs up the airways and makes it difficult for air to get into your lungs. Bronchitis can be acute and chronic. Acute Bronchitis is caused by a virus that gives you common cold whereas in Chronic Bronchitis the air passages are continuously red, swollen, become narrow and clogged with mucus which makes it easier for bacteria to settle in the airways and become infected.

 Complications of Bronchitis

Recurrent or long lasting Bronchitis make you vulnerable to recurrent respiratory infections and also promote lung complications. A few of the most common complications are:

  • Pneumonia is a viral, bacterial or fungal infection of the lungs where the air sacs get filled with pus and mucus preventing oxygen from reaching your blood stream appropriately.

  • Emphysema is a condition when the lungs lose its elasticity due to troublesome breathing causing air to be trapped in the air sacs and impairing the exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide.

  • Respiratory failure occurs when the body fluids become acidic and the lungs are unable to expel all the carbon dioxide that the body produces.
