Irritative Bronchitis
Also known as industrial or environmental bronchitis caused by exposure to various mineral and vegetable dusts as well as cigarettes. Exposure to fumes from strong acids, ammonia, some organic solvents, chlorine, hydrogen sulfide, sulfur dioxide and bromide causes this disease. It’s symptoms begin with a common cold, runny nose, sore throat, fatigue and chillness. One may also experience back and muscle aches together with a slight fever, particular if the cause is due to influenza. Fever is normally high and lasts 3 to 5 days. Higher fevers are unusual unless bronchitis is caused by influenza. Cough is the last symptom to subside and takes long to appear.
Viruses can damage epithelial cells in bronchi. Impairment of airflow may be triggered by common exposures such as inhaling mild irritants e.g perfumes, strong odors or exhaust fumes or cold air causing wheezing.

Herbal Medicines Vs Prescription Drugs
I cannot possibly remember my first contact with herbal remedies but I’m sure it must have been through my Grandmother. She was a pioneer spirit, tough enough to kill a hog to feed her family for the winter. She was amazing and I seem to remember sassafras tea and fresh yellowroot tea from my childhood.
Grandma passed on long ago so I can’t ask but I know she loved her garden and had one of the most prolific gardens I’ve seen.
