Yet when it worsens, wheezing—a high-pitched whistling sound made while exhaling—and coughing appear. Children occasionally have respiratory issues. Bronchitis symptoms typically persist between one and two weeks, but they can last longer. With care at home, most kids recover. A tiny number of kids require hospitalization.
