Some tips.
1)A lump of sugar with1 drop of Eucalyptus Oil, three times a day, fightes the infection.
2) Chest Rub and inhalations. Cinnimon 2 drops, Nutmeg 2 drops. Ginger 2 drops, Eucalyptus 10 drops, Benzoin 4 drops, add to 30 mils, vegies oil. Good as a chest rub and on a hankie, AND, put in your socks under your feet. Your feet absorb.
3)A little brandy, 1 drop of Eucapyptus oil, some ginger, fresh. Add some honey and lemon, and hot water. Drink as hot as possible and get under the your blanket. Used a lot in Switzerland for colds and flu.
Use only GOOD Aromatherapy Oils. Run by your Doctor first.
They don;t like alternative methods, usually. But it is always best.
These have never harmed me or my family.

I won't have vaccines after what I have studied about htem. Last shot 12 years ago, had a cold flu all winter. Live viruses innjected into your body even in the smallest dose. No more.

A Zinc a day will help tremendously... the cold virus can not survive with zinc.
Over the counter Zicam. has zinc in it as a nose spray... hurts a little but works very well...
Stay Well... God Bless

I once suffered from Chronic Bronchitis. I would suffer sometimes 3 to 4 times per year! Usually when there was a major change in the pressure outside (I live in the north, and the temperature spikes and dips do wonders to chronic sufferers of bronchitis!). Each time I would get horrible hacking coughs, hoarking up green phlegm..it was so frustrating!
The key to getting rid of your bronchitis is to find a way to completely eliminate the germs that are causing all the phlegm and irritation leading to your hoarking cough and heavy breathing. Keep reading to learn how to do kill these germs!!

The flu shot does not utilize live virus. I am scheduled to get mine the end of this month, along with a pneumonia shot. I have just recently gotten over a really bad case of bacterial bronchitis....nasty!...had me so, so down and feeling horrible.
I do use some of the home/alternative/herbal remedies and the vicks vapor rub on the soles of the feet does work!
Also HOT decaffineated green tea with lots of lemon

Drink plenty of liquids and rest. I have found that the more I rest, the shorter the cold; and, fortunately I do not get many, which is a miracle since I work with children. At 61 I am currently on no medications and will avoid any sort of medication as long as possible. I don't see them as healthy.

For colds, ibuprofen and, if necessary, Drixoral for head/sinus stuffiness. For a cough, Robitussin DM and Hall's mentholyptus cough drops. Lots of liquids, lots of rest. At night, a good smear of Vick's on the throat and under the nose...feels good.....
Haven't had bronchitis in 10 years. I'm disgustingly healthy.... Usually get one cold a year.....

I start taking echinacea, goldenseal twice daily when the first snap of cold comes in and use it all winter, one to two weeks on then off two weeks. It builds up immunity so I don't get the colds/bronchitis. I've done it for years and not been sick. Don't start taking it if you're already sick. It's preventitive use can be researched by typing in the product name to learn more about it. To your good health.

I've found that the pneumonia shot I got a couple of years ago seem to make mi immune to most colds as well. I haven't had bronchitis since I quit smoking. Thank God for small favors! I have enough other health problems! =)

I am with Dianne m. I take echinacea also. I use to get bronchitis all the time. Now if I start feeling like it is coming on I just take echinacea for a few days and everything is fine.

Wash hands repeat and repeat.The more we do that the less we will get sick. But when it does happen I like the jack daniels answer myself. Too bad I no longer drink alcohol. Hot brandy used to make me feel better and sleep like a baby.
