Interesting: By bronchial asthma, I am assuming you mean constriction of bronchi (airway) caused by viruses (rsv). Cool mist air can help. Otherwise if bad, bronchodilaters like albuterol are helpful.

Asthma definition: Bronchial asthma is the same as asthma. In the past, doctors used to talk about "allergic bronchitis" but that term fell out of favor. It's not completely inaccurate, though, because some asthmatics seem to produce more secretions than others, making their illness seem more like bronchitis. We still distinguish between allergic asthma, intrinsic asthma and exercise-induced bronchospasm (et al).
