No it will not. It will probably make you cough and coughing with that much irritation in your bronchial tubes hurts!

Just try to stay up wind and as far from the fire as possible.

I had severe bronchitis until the age of 7.
So badly that it deformed my clavicle for life.

One thing that really really helps is to turn on your shower as hot as you can and let it steam up. Through your mouth, breath in and out the steam.

Another thing that really helps also is hot compounds on your chest. Very soothing and helps calm the cough.

Stay the heck away from this outing as it will in fact make it worse for you.

Now my little 3 year old grandson is going through it as I did. He uses a mask device inhaler with medicine a few times a day.

Ask your dr. for a tussi based cough syrup (with codine). Man that works well to help relieve that painful cough that feels as if someone is stabbing you repeatedly with a knife. The one I recently got for my H1N1 is Tussionex.
