What Can Cause Bronchitis
Viruses are behind most cases, so antibiotics rarely help. Smoke, pollution and dust aggravate it.

How Bronchitis Feels
- Chest soreness
- Wheeze or a rattling chest
- Cough, sometimes with phlegm

Side combines sandy beaches with ancient ruins and the Temple of Apollo, so sun and walking on stone paths are typical. On beach holidays, heat, sun and swimming can aggravate many conditions, so rest, drink water and tell the doctor what you have been doing.
