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:

  • Speaking of the Beats, I bet Gregory Corso is the imp that first put "Pulmonary" and "Toilet" together. I believe it was in the poem "Radiator Cloaca," was it not? I don't know; not up on G. Corso. But "pulmonary toilet" is a standard medical term. Some judicious physical effort, to clean out lungs, gets rid of debris and also ups infection fighting factors elsewhere in the body.
