Viral Lower Respiratory Tract Infection
When a viral infection affects the lower part of the respiratory system, such as the bronchi and the lungs, it is called a viral lower respiratory tract infection, which can present as bronchitis or bronchiolitis.
How does it show up? Cough, difficulty or noisy breathing, fever, general malaise and, in the youngest, rapid or labored breathing.
Who does it affect? It can occur at any age, but requires special attention in infants, young children, and people with other health conditions.
Which specialist treats it? A pulmonologist evaluates respiratory problems and, in childhood, a pediatrician and a pediatric pulmonologist provide follow-up for the condition. In the case of difficulty breathing, fever that does not go away, or marked listlessness, the prudent thing is to seek timely medical care.
