Bronchitis is a common respiratory disease in babies, with some having acute bronchitis and others having chronic bronchitis. Acute bronchitis can be severe and urgent, but as long as a good solution can be found, the recovery will be faster. How long does it usually take for a baby with acute bronchitis to recover?
As long as the baby's acute bronchitis can be actively treated with medication, it can usually be cured in about a week. If the baby has bronchitis and is infected with mycoplasma or chlamydia, the treatment time usually needs to be longer, and it can usually improve after about two weeks of treatment.
If acute bronchitis in babies is only simple, it is not too severe. If the condition worsens or if the fever persists for a long time, it can be serious. If the baby's acute bronchitis is severe, they must go to the hospital for treatment.
Acute bronchitis in babies is mainly caused by infections such as viruses, Mycoplasma pneumoniae, bacteria, or other mixed infections. The main symptom of acute bronchitis is dry cough. After about one or two days of dry cough, there will be phlegm in the throat. In severe cases, patients may also experience fever, vomiting, diarrhea and other symptoms. For babies with acute bronchitis, it is important to drink plenty of water in daily life to dilute phlegm in the throat and alleviate the symptoms.
