BRONCHITIS (SHWASA PRANALI SHOTH)
Bronchitis is a health condition which is characterized by inflammation of the bronchial tubes that carry air to the lungs. This disease is common in cold climates but may strike in other climatic conditions as well. Allergic patients are more susceptible to bronchitis.
The affected patient of bronchitis suffers from the inflammation of mucous membrane of the bronchi to which phlegm adheres, and there is difficulty in expelling it. The viscidity of phlegm makes it difficult to breath and the lungs are deprived of air. If the bronchitis reaches advanced stage, it may result in high temperature, breathlessness and loss of appetite.

Testimonial
Disease: Psoriasis The Psoriasis started about 15-18 years ago. Initially it was not that much. I was using salicylic acid cream, steroid cream, multivitamin etc with the consultation of Dermatologist. But the psoriasis was never rather it got worse when I stopped taking these medicines. My scalp was full of psoriasis and I had few patches on my back, legs and hands. Then I started taking homeopathic treatment that helped me to some extent but after that there was no healing effect of it. Then I cane across the website of Family Care Clinic while surfing on net as I was desperate to get rid of Psoriasis. I communicated with team of doctors from Family Care Clinic and discussed my disease. I started my treatment under the consultation of Dr. Ritu Bhardwaj. After a detailed consultation she sent me the herbal medicines with description to take them. Now I could see the changes and many of the patches have disappeared now. I feel wonderful now. Thanks to Family Care Clinic and especially to Dr. Ritu.
