Acute Bronchitis
Overview
Acute (ie recent onset) bronchitis is an inflammation of the lower respiratory passages (bronchi).
Causes
The usual cause is an infection due to a virus. The viruses responsible for acute bronchitis include those that might otherwise only cause a cold, but in bronchitis they spread further down the respiratory tree. The bronchial lining, already damaged by this infection, is then open to secondary attack by bacteria.
People who have underlying lung problems, such as chronic (i.e. long-standing) bronchitis, are more likely to get acute bronchitis, as their lung defence mechanism against infection is lower than normal. Smoking is the commonest reason for this to happen.
Although much less common, exposure to irritant fumes and dust can be a cause of acute bronchitis.
Viruses or bacteria cause inflammation in the respiratory passages, which results in:
- Irritation of the respiratory passages, causing a cough.
- An increased production of mucus (phlegm).
- The swelling of the mucous membrane (lining) of the bronchi, along with the increased production of mucus makes the airways narrower, leading to a wheeze
The inflammation can lead to fever, fatigue, coloured spit and a general feeling of ill health.
Symptoms
- Hacking cough.
- Yellow, white, or green phlegm, usually appearing 24 to 48 hours after a cough.
- Fever, chills.
- Soreness and tightness in chest.
- Some pain below breastbone during deep breathing.
- Some shortness of breath

Chronic bronchitis starts with very minor symptoms. However in some people the symptoms get worse and worse over a number of years and may become so serious as to threaten the life of the patients. Chronic bronchitis is often associated with other pulmonary diseases, such as pulmonary emphysema (a chronic lung condition in which the alveoli may be irreversibly damaged).
