It is known as inflammation of the lining of bronchial tubes which carries air to and from the lung. Bronchitis may be either acute or chronic. Chronic bronchitis is a more serious condition that develops over time rather than striking suddenly. It’s characterized by recurrent episodes of bronchitis that last for several months or years.

Symptoms of acute bronchitis may include cough, wheezing of chest, fever, chills and malaise, and shortness of breath especially with exertion. There can be production of mucus (sputum), which can be clear, white, yellowish-gray or green in color.
