I was diagnosed with bronchitis 3 weeks ago, given a zpack & got better aside from having a cough still. 3 days ago syptoms came back worse than ever with high fever, painfull lumps in throat & now sensitive red spots on hands & feet. currently taking different antibiotics for bronchitis all over again.
Thanks for your question on Chat Doctor. I can understand your situation and problem. In my opinion, you should consult pulmonologist and get done clinical examination of respiratory system, chest x-ray and PFT (Pulmonary Function Test). Possibility of lower respiratory tract infection (LETI) is more in your case. You are having worsening of symptoms after bronchitis attack, so LETI can be the cause. So chest x-ray is needed to rule out LETI. PFT will also need to know the severity of bronchitis. And treatment of bronchitis is based on severity only. You may need higher antibiotics, inhaled bronchodilators and inhaled corticosteroid (ICS). So better to consult pulmonologist, first diagnose yourself and then start appropriate treatment. Hope I have solved your query. Wish you good health. Thanks.
