Yes, bronchiolitis is more severe than a cold. It affects the lungs’ small airways, causing wheezing and breathing difficulty. While colds mainly cause a runny nose and mild cough, bronchiolitis can lead to serious respiratory distress.
Bronchiolitis is caused by viral infections, most commonly the respiratory syncytial virus (RSV). Other viruses like influenza and rhinovirus can also cause it. It spreads through coughs, sneezes, and contaminated surfaces.
Treatment focuses on symptom relief. Doctors recommend hydration, rest, humidified air, saline nasal drops, and fever control if needed. In severe cases, oxygen therapy and hospitalization may be required.
