Patient's question:
Recently, I was taking care of someone else's child. Since the child had previously suffered from bronchitis and now has a feverish symptom again, I wanted to ask if bronchitis can cause a fever?Doctor's answer:
Bronchitis can cause a fever. Bronchitis is caused by a bacterial infection, and sometimes it may reappear with fever, cough, coughing up phlegm, and other symptoms. Generally, this is not hereditary. Children suffering from bronchitis are common bacterial infections. If the disease is cured after antibiotic treatment, it will never recur. If bronchitis occurs again, it is another bacterial infection, so it is recommended that patients or their family members actively receive personal prevention training. During daily life, pay attention to opening windows for ventilation to ensure the indoor air is clean and fresh, and keep the patient in a relatively clean living environment to prevent bacteria and viruses from spreading through unclean air and repeatedly infecting the patient.
