Do I have bronchitis?!
Question: I first had bronchitis when I was about 9 or 10 according to my mom. I took acupuncture and I never got it again. I'm 17 now. I've been coughing constantly with mucus coming out several times since the middle of february. i went to the doctor around two weeks ago and he told me it's just allergys and prescribed me with claritin and nasonex. and i'm still sick! anyways, I'm thinking of going to the doctor again this week.
so my question is it possible that bronchitis can reoccur? and what are the specific symptoms for it?

yes it can reoccur. when you first went to dr it may of not been as bad as it is now. is it keeping you up at night, chest tightness, sore sides when coughing. i would still go back. one thing to remember with bronchitis is you never want it to settle in your chest. you will feel tired i know, i have had if numerous times. try to sleep elevated. the reason for this is because it can turn into pneumonia. feel better. have you tried musonex? it helps. take it with losts of water
yes bronchitis can reoccur and be worse the next time around
