Swimming with bronchitis

Being relatively new to swimming don't know how the “rules” of being sick-getting better-jumping back in the water work. So here's my question: How soon you think I can go back to swimming after having a very bad bronchitis? I got sick last Wednesday :cry:, do feel better now, BUT the cough is still very strong and the nose is trying to run away... :D Any suggestions? Supposedly I am on the list to swim a relay in November, so can't miss too many days, on the other hand, don't want to get sicker.... :shakeshead: Thank you very much!!!:notworthy:

    Wow, I zipped over to this board to find the answer to this question. I have had bronchitis (doc even did a chest x-ray) for a couple of weeks now. Am feeling much better but still have a cough with a rattle/crackle kinda sound. Will swim easy until, GASP, dare I say it???????, the noodlers get in the pool. I might even join them. I've seen several at different places and they say they are using new equipment--like resistance bands--hummm TTFN, Lainey
