Can I Start Track and Field Without Asthma Inhaler?
I have asthma but no inhaler and I want to start track and field in my school. What should I do?
Pulmonologist
Answered on 7th Oct '24
Sports if you are asthmatic and lack of inhaler can turn out to be a dangerous affair. Asthma is a disease that can cause breathing difficulties, coughing, and compactness of the chest among other things. Physical activities can provoke an asthma attack. In your situation, it would be dangerous to do track and field without an inhaler. Warn your parents or school nurse about your asthma and request them to help you get an inhaler before beginning track and field.

You may have an allergy to the lungs which makes you cough, wheeze, and feel shortness of breath. Dust, pollen, or pet dander are some of the things that set off these allergies. The symptoms usually persist and disappear, even with the treatment. Take your prescribed medications regularly, avoid the triggers, and see a pulmonologist regularly for better management.

Been having a cough for 2 weeks finished my antibiotics I do vape
Female | 21
A respiratory specialist or pulmonologist might be the one to consult given a persistent cough for the past 14 days after you have completed the course of antibiotics. Vaping can aggravate the airways and increase respiratory problems; hence the doctors must do a thorough evaluation to put the conditions right.

My 7-month-old daughter has coughed for almost 20 days. Some times it feels like a dry cough, and some time it feels like mucus. mostly she feels good but suddenly cough starts and feels like choking or unable to breathe, and this happens in phase 2 or 3 times in 24 hours.
Female | 7 months
A dry cough changing to mucus coughing may signal throat irritation or a cold. Difficulty breathing during coughing fits could mean mucus temporarily blocks her airways. Keep her hydrated. Use a humidifier in her room to loosen mucus. If coughing persists or worsens, seek medical attention from her pediatrician. This rules out other issues needing treatment.

To alleviate these symptoms, try eating smaller meals, staying away from spicy foods, and not lying down immediately after eating. Drinking water might also help.

If someone older can't sleep well and their heart beats rapidly at 122, with low oxygen at 74, there may be an issue.

The symptoms you are giving are very understandable. Muscle pain and weakness after fever and colds sometimes occur, but if the pain and numbness are increasing, it is a problem. It can also happen because of neurological or muscular issues. Taking a little rest, making hydration, and doing some light stretching can be helpful. But most importantly, you should consult a pulmonologist who can accurately examination of your health and provide you with proper treatment.

Starting about 6 days ago, I began having a swollen and sore throat (only painful and swollen on right side.) Then I started having coughing fits, coughing up stuff, and having chest pains. My nose also goes back and forth from runny to stuffy. I’ve been taking mucus relief medicine, throat spray, nasal congestion spray, and Tylenol. Nothing is working. What’s wrong with me
Female | 21
You might have a respiratory infection, which is a viral infection. The infection could result in a sore throat, coughing, chest pain, and nasal congestion. The use of mucus relief, throat spray, and nasal congestion spray is good for symptom relief, but if it has not improved, you may need to see a pulmonologist for further evaluation and possibly antibiotics. The doctor can do this if there is any bacterial infection that may be present.

I am having chest discomfort and wheezing which can be felt my me only and not heard out . And I am having shortness of breath
Female | 21
Asthma makes breathing difficult. Your airways become inflamed and swollen. You feel tightness in your chest. Wheezing sounds happen as air struggles to pass through narrow pipes. Using an inhaler opens the airways. This allows air to flow freely. Breathing becomes easier, and more comfortable. Seeing a pulmonologist can properly diagnose asthma. Proper treatment helps manage symptoms.

Male | 30
These are all signs of some breathing bug like cold or flu. Right now what will help most is to drink plenty of liquids, stay in bed as long as possible, and take something like Tylenol for the pain. If you don’t start feeling better soon or if things get worse instead, then go to a doctor to take a look at what’s going on with your body.

I don't have a persistent cough or nasal congestion, but I'm experiencing catarrh in my chest that occasionally impedes my ability to speak. There are times when I need to clear my throat frequently, as the catarrh buildup in my chest restricts airflow or speech. Occasionally, I find myself needing to bring it out through my mouth by gently guiding it from the nasal passage
