Symptoms of Tracheitis

Bronchitis is a common respiratory disease, mainly characterized by coughing, sputum production, and chest discomfort. Initial symptoms typically include a dry cough, which may progress to a wet cough with thick sputum as the disease develops. Patients may experience sore throat, chest tightness, or difficulty breathing, particularly worsening at night or in the early morning. Some patients may also exhibit systemic symptoms such as fever and general fatigue. The causes of bronchitis are varied, including viral infections, bacterial infections, and inhalation of irritants. Individuals with allergic constitutions or those who smoke chronically are more susceptible to developing this disease. If symptoms persist for more than several weeks, or if severe breathing difficulties or hemoptysis occur, prompt medical attention should be sought for thorough examination and treatment. In daily care, maintaining humidified air and avoiding irritants such as smoke and dust can help alleviate symptoms. Drinking adequate amounts of water may assist in thinning the sputum and promoting its expulsion.
