Overview

Acute bronchitis must be differentiated from other causes of cough and wheezing including: acute exacerbation of chronic bronchitis, Asthma and Pneumonia.

Differential Diagnosis of Acute Bronchitis

The Acute Bronchitis must be differentiated from other diseases that may cause cough, dyspnea and wheezing[1].

Disease Findings
Chronic Bronchitis Presents with chronic cough, dyspnea and sputum production for more than three months for two years[2].
Pneumonia Presents with acute fever, cough and shortness of breath, although pulmonary infiltrate on chest x-ray is an imaging finding[3].
Asthma Presents with cough, dyspnea and wheezing and typically is a chronic condition which has started from childhood[4].
Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease May present with chronic dry cough but the typical symptom is heart burn[5][6].
