Respiratory Diseases

Bronchitis

Bronchitis is inflammation of the larger airways — a deep cough, often after a viral cold.

Most childhood bronchitis is viral. The cough can last two to three weeks. We watch for wheeze that actually means asthma, and for pneumonia that needs a different plan.

Understand

What we explain in clinic

Deep cough

Feel

Chest-sounding cough, a little mucus, tiredness after a cold.

Usually viral

Cause

Antibiotics do not shorten a viral cough and upset the tummy.

Sleep

Nights

Cough often worsens when the child lies flat.

Recovery

Time

Energy returns before the cough fully leaves. That can still be normal.

Evaluation

What we look for

Chest

Listen

We separate simple bronchitis from wheeze, pneumonia or a foreign body.

Support

Home

Fluids, honey (only after one year of age) and rest help the lining heal.

Repeaters

Pattern

Three ‘bronchitis’ winters in a row often hide asthma or allergy.

Review

If stuck

A cough still climbing after two weeks needs a second listen.

At Grace Clinic

How care is planned

01

Listen first

We take a full history — onset, feeding, fever, sleep, school and any earlier reports.

02

Examine & chart

Growth, chest, tummy, skin and development are checked. Tests are advised only if they change care.

03

Treat & follow

A clear home plan is given, with a review so we know the child is settling.

When to book

Book if breathing is fast, the child is wheezing, or a cough after a cold is getting worse instead of better.
