Bronchitis Sign #9: Conjunctivitis
Conjunctivitis or pink eye occurs when the outermost layer of the white part of the eye is inflamed. This causes the eye to look reddish or pink. It can cause symptoms such as scratchiness, pain, itchiness, and a burning sensation.
The commonest causes of conjunctivitis are bacterial, viral, or allergens. In patients with bronchitis, the presence of conjunctivitis is suggestive that the bronchitis is due to a viral infection such as adenovirus.
