Patient's question:
How is eosinophilic bronchitis treated? I have had this eosinophilic bronchitis for a year since diagnosis. During this time, I have only taken some medication as prescribed by my doctor, but the effect is not very ideal. What treatment methods can be used to this bronchitis?Doctor's answer:
Eosinophilic bronchitis is one of the common causes of chronic cough. Eosinophilic bronchitis has eosinophilic inflammatory characteristics similar to bronchial asthma, but it does not have the reversible airflow obstruction or airway hyperresponsiveness of asthma. Based on your current description, if you experience eosinophilic bronchitis again, it is still considered to be related to some immune function issues. It is also possible that the clinical symptoms mentioned above are caused by allergic reactions. Generally, treating eosinophilic bronchitis is relatively difficult, and the current treatment effect is not very ideal. It is recommended to have further treatment.
