Ive had Bronchitis so many times. After awhile you will feel alot better. Usually you dont feel better until your done the medication, it takes so long to get in your body. You do feel like you cant breath hew is all i could say

I've had bronchitis. You should be fine. The pills are likely an antibiotic, which should make a huge difference in 3 days or so. Bronchitis is a respiatory (lung) infection, which is why you have trouble breathing.P.S. Don't know if you're a smoker, but if so try to avoid it. It will take longer to get well and may make the infection worse.

bronchitis is a little bad. but if you take ur medications when u should be without missing times, it could clear up by then. keep trying ur breathing exercises. i also think u should look into getting an inhaler. those can help alot. best wishes.

bronchitis isn't a big deal. you'll cough up all the stuff that is in your lungs and then you'll be fine. the pills will stop there from being anymore phlegm in your lungs then there already is, and you'll cough up the rest over the next week or so. you won't have to go to the hospital. the shortness of breath is typical of bronchitis by the way

my husband gets bronchitis all the time. if treated properly it's nothing to freak over. the upper tubes of your lungs have swollen a little and are irritated. that's why it's hard to breathe deeply. after you finish the antibiotics that they gave you for the infection, the swelling will go down and you will be able to breathe normally again. try taking warm showers and breathing in the steam, it helps. also, get plenty of rest and drink plenty of fluids.hope you feel better soon.

alright first off, take a deep breath. having broncho is not the worst thing ever. if you really have trouble breathing, go see a specialist in your respitory system. call up your doctor in 2-3 days and ask if you can use an inhaler. i really would not worry about going to the hospital. it is like a 1 in a milllion chance that will happen. it might also be signs of asthma! go see a doctor and tell me your results

I have chronic bronchitis, and it's ok, you'll be fine. Bronchitis is just an infection of your bronchi, which are the tubes that create mucus. When you have bronchitis, the start making mucus in overtime, and it starts clogging your breathing passages, which is why you find it hard to breathe. You'll want to stay away from anything dairy because it can add to the mucus. Drink lots of water, and add some Tabasco to some soups to help kill the bacteria. You'll also be hacking a lot of thick green and yellow mucus, don't worry, you need to do that to get it out of your system and body. If the dr. hasn't given you any medicine, tabasco will help you cut through the mucus, and anything mentholated will help also.

Yes, if you have a really bad bronchitis your breathing can hold up even after that if you smoke and stuff but I sure you don't so you'll be fine. Keep warm, drink a lot of fluids and take a rest and believe me, it'll be fine again!
