About Bronchitis

Bronchitis is an inflammation of the lining of your bronchial tubes, which carry air to and from your lungs. People with bronchitis often cough up thickened mucus.

  • Viral infections (same viruses causing colds and flu)
  • Bacterial infections (less common)
  • Exposure to tobacco smoke
  • Air pollution and dust
  • Fumes and chemical irritants
  • Gastric reflux
  • Weakened immune system
