Answers:
It's usually pretty easy to manage bronchitis - if the activity doesn't increase the irritation it's OK to do!. Running can sometimes help bronchitis or make it worse, depending on air temperature, humidity, air quality and allergens!. If you want to go running, try a very short run to see what happens!. Usually bronchitis also causes a person to feel a little run-down, so extra rest is often needed!. One other things that helps if you have congestion is to take an expectorant such as Mucinex!. Recovery times are extremely variable - from a few weeks to a few months!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
I was getting acute bronchitis from cigarette smoking, doctor gave me 10 day prescription of antibiotics and one month of bronchodilator!. It will take time to recover from bronchitis (I'm still in the process of recovery after weeks!), you need to drink plenty of fluid and rest which mean you should cut down works, heavy exercises and have enough sleep!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
The only way I can get rid of bronchitis is through a prescribed antibiotic, then the dry hacking cough last for a few weeks!. My doctor advised rest also, I just avoided any strenuous work in which would cause a coughing outbreak!. With seven kids and a business to run, every day is strenuous!. Good luck!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Yeah!! I know in your situation you really don't see where you will be able to!. I never was able to sit down even when my children were young!.
Just try to find ways to take it a bit easier for a few days and you should be over this problem!. Stress doesn't help either!!
