Patient's question:
Doctor, hello. I would like to ask you a question. I have bronchitis for over ten years, but recently the doctor said it has transitioned from acute to chronic. I just want to ask you, what are the differences between acute bronchitis and chronic bronchitis? What are the differences between chronic bronchitis and acute bronchitis?Doctor's answer:
Chronic bronchitis and acute bronchitis are mainly related in terms of the time of onset. If the course of the disease is longer than one year, it is usually chronic bronchitis. If the course of the disease is within one year, it is generally acute bronchitis. It is mainly differentiated by time, and the relief plans for different types of bronchitis also have certain differences. Proper medication can be determined, and attention should be paid to rest and exercise to endure the recovery process.
