Bronchitis may be caused by a virus, bacteria, smoking or the inhalation of chemical pollutants or dust. When the cells of the bronchial-lining tissue are irritated beyond a certain point, the tiny hairs (cilia) within them, which normally trap and eliminate pollutants, stop functioning. Consequently, the air passages become clogged by debris and irritation increases. In response, a heavy secretion of mucus develops, which causes the characteristic cough of bronchitis.
Let’s see. In Yuma there was dust. Lots of dust… Also smoke, In Arizona you can light up anywhere… Yeah, I’m trying to blame Yuma. So? Maybe those giant bugs harbored the germs…
I hope my version is a bacteria so the pills I got will work.
that just sounds so awful - - hope the pills work for you too and that you are better in no time.
And hey look at it this way - - at least you aren’t a girl cause if you were the antibiotics could give you a yeast infection - - see it could always be worse
Get well soon, daniel!
