  "textContent": "Bronchiectasis is a long-term health condition in which airways are constantly irritated or inflamed, leading to permanent airway damage and a buildup of mucus. This often causes a chronic cough and infections. People with bronchiectasis who also have chronic sinus disease (constant irritation of the spaces behind the nose and cheeks) have more symptoms and more frequent flare-ups of their bronchiectasis. The sinuses (space behind the nose and cheeks) may serve as a collecting or storage place for germs or bacteria that could move into the lungs.",
