Bronchitis is nothing but the inflammation of the lining of bronchial tubes of the lungs. It is of two types, namely, acute and chronic bronchitis. Acute bronchitis, also known as a chest cold, is found to be very common and develops from a cold or other respiratory infection. On the other hand, chronic bronchitis is a severe condition which is characterized by constant irritation or inflammation of the lining of bronchial tubes. It is included in the Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD). Shortness of breath, cough, slight fever and chills, production of mucus, fatigue, and chest discomfort are major symptoms of bronchitis. It can be diagnosed through various tests such as chest X-ray, sputum tests, and pulmonary function test.
