The typical clinical manifestations of most patients with bronchitis are coughing and sputum, and occasionally symptoms such as recurrent fever may occur. Generally speaking, patients with better conditions can be treated by oral medication, which can significantly relieve symptoms in about 1 week. Hospitalization is generally not recommended. If the patient's symptoms are more serious, or the symptoms cannot be significantly relieved through oral medication, it is recommended to be hospitalized for treatment.
