Pulmonologist,  's  Response
Thanks for your question on Health Care Magic.
I can understand your concern.
Bronchiolitis is inflammation of small airways.
Most common cause for this is lung infection.
Inflammation causes bronchospasm and cough.
This needs antibiotics, inhaled bronchodilators and inhaled corticosteroid (ICS).
So consult pulmonologist and discuss all these.
He will need inhaled treatment for complete recovery.
Usual time of recovery is 1-2 months.
Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further.
Wishing good health to your son. Thanks.
