I have had bronchitis twice this year. First time was around new years (after a very large snow storm) and now again in Nov. I've been sick for two weeks and diagnosed with bronchitis (after having a viral infection). My question is: can mold or an allergy also be a factor in getting bronchitis? I work in a building that constantly has a leaky roof (actually water pouring down) after rain or snow melting and has a constant smell of mold/mildew. I have an allergy to mold and have problems breathing while at work. Thoughts...

am I crazy to feel this may be the cause or helping me get sick?

Antibioitic Ampicillin 500mg best & cheapest price

Thanks

Not sure what this has to do with acne.... but yes, mold and damp can certainly cause bronchitis, especially if your airways are already sensitive (I have latent asthma and was constantly getting respiratory infections at university when I was living in a student house with mold and mildew.) Perhaps you could take a dehumidifier to work with you to put on whilst you're there? Might not solve the problem completely, especially if it's a big building, but it should help a bit.

Most likely!
for bronchitis one doctor said to take flaxseed oil inside 1-2T daily
for any kind of allergy drink water with apple cider vinegar and raw honey several times a day
