Pneumonia is not contagious as such however, what’s contagious, are the viruses that causes the disease. ‘Mycoplasma pneumonia bacteria’ is one such virus. Close contact with an infected person is the usual cause of pneumonia transmission. Just like the common cold, pneumonia spreads rapidly with close, person-to-person contact.

Asthma pumps are devices that are also referred to as ‘inhalers’ or ‘bronchodilators’. These asthma pumps dome in different colors, like brown, beige, blue, red and orange and consist of two types, ‘short-acting’ and ‘anti-inflammatory’. Asthma pumps can be bought at online and offline medical stores and pharmacies. However, only under the advice of a qualified doctor must they be purchased.

Of the different color-coded, bronchodilator-inhaler units is the ‘brown’ asthma pump. With its slow and sustained absorption qualities, it is used as a stabilizer during an asthma attack. The brown asthma pump is more or less side effect-free and contains an anti-inflammatory formulation. If used regularly under your doctor’s advice, it can prove to be extremely effective.

The truth is that bronchitis is contagious and you are susceptible to contract it, too. It is usually caused by bacterial or viral infections. The virus is transmitted from an infected person through a cough or sneeze. It is imperative that the patient seek immediate medical care as this could result in pneumonia if left untreated.

The most common bronchitis symptom is frequent coughing. In the beginning, the cough is dry. After a few days, the cough becomes productive (with mucus) which usually gets worse at night. A child can vomit and even choke with increased levels of mucus buildup due to coughing.

A dry cough is the most common symptom of bronchitis. In the following days, the cough may then produce mucus. If the cough is persistent, symptoms like fatigue, chest pain, fever, etc. will be followed, which will result in pneumonia. Therefore, it is important to consult a doctor immediately.

Patients having acute bronchitis may be treated at home. To control the cough, a patient may consume a cough medicine. Cough expectorants are also available to help thin the sputum. Antibiotics may be necessary to fight against bacterial infection. If the patient gets chronic bronchitis or pneumonia, or his/her condition gets worse, hospital care is advised.

Bronchitis is an ailment that causes breathing difficulties. Contrary to modern drugs and medication to treat bronchitis, there’s a secret alternative that is just as good. That alternative is a secret formula devised by Richard Jones. The secret formula is a combination of a natural product, advice and information. The formula which was tested and tried by Jones and which also cured him, is now available to the public.

Acute bronchitis cases generally subside within a few days of no treatment. There is no cure for chronic bronchitis, but with the help of some medicines, it can be kept under control. Generally, asthmatics are given bronchodilators, which help to clear mucus by opening bronchial tubes. Such drugs are delivered by an inhaler. Mucolytics are also effective to treat chronic bronchitis because they help to thin or loosen mucus in the air passage.

Bronchitis is of two types – chronic and acute. The symptoms of these two types, however, are pretty much the same. Common symptoms are throat ache, breathlessness, mild fever and chest ache. You may also experience wheezing trouble, persistent coughing and chills.
