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. Acute bronchitis is very common and often develops from a cold or respiratory infection. Most cases improve within a week to 10 days, though the cough may linger.
Common Causes
- 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

Healthcare in Menorca: what visitors and residents should know
How local care works in Menorca and across Balearic Islands, Spain — and where an online doctor fits alongside it.
Menorca is served by IB-Salut, the Servei de Salut de les Illes Balears, with Catalan co-official alongside Spanish. State healthcare is run at regional level, so the rules you meet depend on where you are rather than on Spain as a whole. EU, EEA and Swiss visitors holding an EHIC (or a UK GHIC) can use public primary care and emergency departments on the same terms as residents, though you will normally be asked for the card plus photo ID at reception. Outside surgery hours, pharmacies operate a rota — the farmacia de guardia — and the duty pharmacy is posted in the window of every closed chemist. Menorca is the most consequential case in the Balearics for understanding island healthcare limits: it is a small island with correspondingly limited specialist provision, and anything beyond what can be handled locally means transfer to Palma on Mallorca — by air or sea, on a schedule that is not immediate. Planning around that constraint matters more here than almost anywhere else in Spain. The island is a UNESCO biosphere reserve with deliberately restrained development, so the resort-town infrastructure and English-language private clinic density found on Mallorca and Ibiza is thinner, and out of season a good deal of it closes entirely. Visitor numbers are strongly seasonal, concentrated into summer, with a quiet winter in which local services run at a much reduced tempo.
- UNESCO Biosphere Reserve
- Family-friendly destination
- Beautiful beaches and coves
