Suggest remedy for recurring breathing problem
Patient: i am sufferung from breating problem in the night times, when i consult nearest doctor he told that it is like dust elergy. He gave me some medecine. when i use those medicines i feel better but when i stop it again the same thing. can you please suggest what can do and whom to consult. Doctor: Thanks for your question on Healthcare Magic.I can understand your concern. You are having dust allergy and breathing difficulty. So possibility of asthma is more likely. So better to consult pulmonologist and get done clinical examination of respiratory system and PFT (Pulmonary Function Test).PFT will not only diagnose asthma but it will also tell you about severity of the disease and treatment is based on severity only. You will mostly improve with inhaled bronchodilators (formoterol or salmeterol) and inhaled corticosteroid (ICS) (budesonide or fluticasone).Oral combination of antihistamine (levocetrizine or fexofenadine) and anti allergic (montelukast) once a day at night is also beneficial.Don't worry, you will be alright with all these. Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
