Bronchitis: It is very possible to have it for a month. Anything can drive it from being a virus to not being treated with the necessary medicine. Sometimes it is residual inflammation that is causing your symptoms. That is where an inhaler or round of steroids can help.

Not unusual: for one kind of bronchitis to give way to another. Some pretty persistent coughs have been out there due to some kind of common infection. It will most likely pass over, but not a moment too soon!
