Untreated Bronchitis?!
Question:
Untreated Bronchitis?
A few weeks ago i went to the ER and was diagnosised with bronchitis and givin some antibiotics....however that night i began vomiting and had a fever for a bout 3 days and i also had a rash...so i quit taking my antibiotics...now im spitting up blood ....can my bronchitis turn into something worse if i dont continue my antibiotics or will it go away on its own?
Answers:
Are you coughing up blood or is it coming from somewhere else like your stomach. If you are coughing up blood, you should be seen by a doctor. Unless you are coughing real hard and there is just a little speck of blood. Coughing blood could mean pneumonia, TB or several other conditions most of which need treatment. Bronchitis usually goes away without antibiotics but at this point (over 2 weeks), you should see your doctor.
