Suggest treatment for dizziness and shortness of breath
Patient: Today I had about four hours of dizziness and have had dizziness on and off for quite a time but before it would just be for a few moments. I have been having facial swelling and have been seeing an allergist and he has not been able to figure it out. I am tired most of the time and have shortness of breath. My feet hurt a lot and have sharp pains in my legs periodically. Doctor: Thanks for your question on Health Care Magic. I can understand your concern. Facial swelling, shortness of breath, leg pain can be due to allergy. So you need PFT (Pulmonary Function Test) for the diagnosis of allergic bronchitis. Inhaled bronchodilators and inhaled corticosteroid (ICS) along with anti allergic and antihistamine drugs are needed in your case. So better to first diagnose yourself and then start appropriate treatment. Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
