| need to know a thing or two about bronchitis. My little brother spent last four days under medical examinations, blood tests and stuff. I over heard when doctor spoke to our parents; he mentioned asthma and bronchitis, but I did not quite understand him. Are these two connected? Are they serious? Please, I would appreciate some answer. |

| Broncitis or bronchitis, same thing. As for asthma it is something a bit different. These two have one thing in common; they are both conditions that obstruct breathing paths, thus damaging lung tissue. Bronchitis can occur more in smokers, since they add extra materials for lung obstruction (I mean nicotine). Both asthma and bronchitis can be serious, if not treated, but, luckily, they are. |
