Bronchitis or chronic bronchitis is related to COPD that is a result of smoking in case you have lower resp tract infection or bronchitis which is causing the symptom you need to visit a Pulmonologist who can request for a sputum culture and sensitivity that can lead to the identification of the disease causing organism and accordingly the sensitive Chat Doctor. In my patients I usually do the same you may discuss all these modalities with your Pulmonologist so that he can guide you better if its chronic bronchitis a spirometry is needed to stage the diseases and accordingly inhaled medications need to be startedthanksfeel free to ask more questions
