Patient's question:
Recently, I've been experiencing chest pain and tightness in my chest. The hospital examination suggested a respiratory disease, but the medication hasn't been very effective. Recently, my cough has worsened. How can acute bronchitis be cured?Doctor's answer:
Bronchitis is generally divided into acute and chronic forms. If a patient's condition has persisted for a long time and tends to flare up during colds or stomach issues, it is more likely to be chronic bronchitis. This condition may last for an extended period, and it is generally recommended to seek traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) treatment. If the symptoms have recently reappeared, with noticeable coughing or accompanied by fever, it may be necessary to take anti-inflammatory medications and some traditional Chinese herbal remedies to alleviate the condition.
