Allergic Bronchitis

best hospital in jaipur|Gadhwal Heart & General Hospital

Allergic bronchitis is a respiratory condition caused by an allergic reaction that leads to inflammation of the bronchial tubes. These airways become irritated when exposed to allergens such as dust, pollen, smoke, pet dander, or pollution, resulting in breathing discomfort and persistent coughing. With proper diagnosis and timely treatment, allergic bronchitis can be effectively managed and controlled.

What Is Allergic Bronchitis?

Allergic bronchitis occurs when the bronchial tubes react sensitively to allergens, causing inflammation and excess mucus production. Unlike infectious bronchitis, this condition is not caused by bacteria or viruses but by repeated exposure to allergy triggers. It may be seasonal or chronic, especially in individuals with asthma or allergic tendencies.
