Bronchitis is the inflammation of the bronchi
or commonly known as the air passages of the
lungs, bronchitis is usually caused initially
by a viral infection, such as a cold or flu.
It is aggravated by environmental pollutants,
especially smoking, and results in a
persistent cough, irritated mucus-secreting
glands, and large amounts of sputum.
