Your lungs are filled with mucous that got an infection be it from a cold or flu or just because your immune system was weak at the time.
Always Complete The Antibiotic Program
If you do not complete the antibiotic program that is given as part of your chronic bronchitis treatment, you can expect to go and see the doctor soon again. Besides your body feeling all bruised up and battered on the inside from all the coughing part of the chronic bronchitis treatment would be with the use of an asthma pump and a hot steam for your chest, by using a nebuliser, you will feel exceptionally exhausted too.

Since there are other homeopathic ways that could be used in conjunction with the chronic bronchitis treatment, it is important to remember only what the doctor has prescribed orally for you, nothing extra, as this could cause some complications mixing way too many remedies together, therefore causing other harm. Don’t just go taking anything that someone has given you, especially if it is oral medication from a chemist that you don’t know of or that someone else has used for themselves as treatment. Not only could doing this be bad for you as you do not know what ingredients are in the liquid or pill which could have detrimental effects to your health.
