Can I wash my 3M 9010 N95 pollution mask with detergent powder? Also, could you recommend a really effective pollution mask for the Delhi air? I'm a bit concerned about safety with all this pollution.

Question

I'm two months pregnant and have asthma, and I'm really wondering if it's safe for me to be using Levolin respule at 0.63mg?

I'm feeling worried because sometimes when I go for a walk, especially after I've covered about a kilometer, I start experiencing breathlessness. It's not every time, but it happens often enough to be concerning. I've done various tests like echo, ECG, TMT, chest X-ray, and all sorts of blood tests, but everything comes back normal. Why could this be happening?
