What is the difference between Asthma and Chronic Bronchitis?
July 27th, 2008 | by admin |They recently diagnosed me with Asthma and have me on two types of inhalers.
I really think it’s Chronic Bronchitis.
What symptoms distinguish these two ailments from each other?
I’m 42 and lived with a smoker for 25 years.

Chronic bronchitis is usually found only in heavy smokers. Asthma usually presents itself at a very young age while the other one presents in the 50+ age group. Chronic bronchitis is also associated with a lot of sputum production when compared to asthma. Asthma can also be due to some medication, food, pollen or dust to which you are allergic to.
