Yes. I encourage you to book a session with your practitioner of choice to get help with relief.

Yes, you can supplement your western medical treatment for bronchitis with acupuncture to help you get over it much more quickly and to prevent it in the future.
Acupuncture with cupping and herbs can help a lot or get rid of bronchitis.

Our medicine is usually effective at helping with this. It probably would also include some lifestyle changes and herbal therapy as well, which we are also trained in.
It can help but your genetics play a big part in your ability to respond favorably. Living and working environments are also factors in how receptive you are to acupuncture. Living/working in "damp" or "musty" environments are not good for any respiratory issues, as are excessively dry environments or ones with poor air flow/quality. There may be mold present, or if there has been new construction there is a phenomenon called "Toxic building Syndrome". Certain environmental allergens can worsen bronchitis, so it may be a good idea to get tested and know what to avoid when possible. What you eat can make bronchitis worse. Excessive weight issues or lack of exercise (or too much) certainly don't help.
With all of that in mind, acupuncture works to strengthen the immune system and help regulate imbalances. Making lifestyle changes where necessary along with weekly acupuncture will certainly get you on your way. Good luck!!!

You do not state whether you have acute or chronic bronchitis. At 22, that would be awfully young to have chronic bronchitis. My concern is if you have acute bronchitis that you have a correct diagnosis that has been fully assessed given the COVID-19 crisis. I would first recommend you see a physician, that’s a medical doctor, not an advanced practitioner, regarding your symptoms.
I hope that you seek and find the proper care.

Yes. Acupuncture and Chinese Herbal Formulas are excellent for relieving the symptoms often associated with bronchitis: shortness of breath, congestion, tightness in the chest, difficulty inhaling or exhaling, fatigue, and trouble sleeping. With regular treatment, 1-3 times per week while the symptoms are at their worse, can help reduce the length of time the symptoms last and the severity. Treatment after the symptoms have subsided 1-4 times per month, can help restore vital energy, boost immunity, and restore homeostasis.
Acupuncture can help with lung function as well as mucus issues. However, bronchitis is a diagnosis that can be very serious and should be under the care of a doctor. Any decent acupuncturist should refuse to treat you until you have seen a doctor. Particularly with the current global situation any respiratory conditions need to be carefully monitored and should be

Acupuncture and Chinese medicine can be very helpful in cases of bronchitis and other respiratory issues. I have helped quite a few patients. You want to find a qualified, Licensed practitioner - Licensed Acupuncturist - in your area.
Remember that if your first choice is a good one, stick with them, but if you find you don't click well with the practitioner, you can always go to another practitioner whom you feel more comfortable using.
Good luck.

Yes absolutely.

Yes. Acupuncture and cupping can help shorten the length of time you're sick and help prevent bronchitis in the future.
In my experience, it is quite effective.
Assuming the cause of your bronchitis isn't bacterial or fungal (in which case you'd need antibiotics), yes, acupuncture can probably help with the inflammation and shortness of breath.
