Question

why smokers pfen get bronchitis​

Answer 1

Answer:

Cigarette smoking has been linked with overproduction of mucus associated with chronic bronchitis, according to a new study. The study indicates cigarette smoke suppresses a protein that causes the natural death of mucus-producing cells in the airways of bronchitis patients.

Answer 2

You are more likely to get acute bronchitis if your bronchial tree is already damaged. Cigarette smoking or being around damaging fumes (such as industrial fumes) can break down your body's defense against infection. People who smoke are more likely to get acute bronchitis and to have it longer.
