Bronchitis generally follows a viral infection of the lungs. Common cold can also cause bronchitis. In common cold, an infection of the respiratory tract accompanied by inflammation of the air passages of the lungs, sets the stage for bronchitis followed by bacterial infection.

Bronchitis is classified into two categories: acute and chronic. Acute (sudden onset) bronchitis is the less serious of the two, generally only lasting a few days or weeks. It is characterized by an inflammation in the respiratory airways of the lungs, known as the bronchi, which causes several symptoms such as coughing and shortness of breath.
