Pathologist (Pediatric) Questions Bronchitis

How is bronchitis diagnosed?

My son is 12 year old, and he has been coughing for at least a week. What can be the cause? Could this be bronchitis?

By history of moist coughing.
Cause of cough can be bronchitis but there are other causes such as allergy drainage, reflux, and asthma to name a few. He would need to be checked to see how his lungs sound to try to determine the cause
