I'm a 53-year-old man living in Delhi and every year during the humid months of July through September, I start getting these breathing problems. So far, I've been taking Montair LC every couple of days at night, and it helps. But sometimes if I forget, I end up using Asthaline inhaler when I get breathless, and then I take Montair LC, which usually makes things better. I've recently heard that Montair LC might have some side effects, and now I'm a bit worried about continuing with it. Should I just stick to using the Asthaline inhaler whenever I feel I need it, instead of taking Montair LC regularly?

I'm a bit concerned because I've noticed strings of blood clots in my sputum a few times. It first happened twice back in September 2019, then once in October 2019, and now it's happened 45 times recently. I've attached a photo for reference. Can you share your thoughts on this?

I've been having trouble taking a deep breath without yawning for the last couple of months. It feels like I'm just not getting enough air, almost like I'm hungry for it. What could be causing this?

It sounds like you may be experiencing a condition called air hunger, which can be caused by various underlying medical issues. One common cause is anxiety or stress, but it can also be due to respiratory problems such as asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), or even heart conditions. To address your symptoms, it is important to first consult with a healthcare professional for a proper evaluation and diagnosis. In the meantime, you can try using an inhaler like Albuterol (Ventolin) for possible asthma symptoms. The usual dosage for adults is 2 puffs every 4-6 hours as needed. If the symptoms persist or worsen, please seek medical attention promptly for further evaluation and management.

I'm an asthma patient since I was 15 years old. It used to be under control, but in the past year, it's gotten worse. When I eat tomatoes, I start getting phlegm, cough, wheezing, and shortness of breath. My doctor told me to use one puff of Seroflo 100 daily. But what I'm really curious about is why I seem to have such quick mucus production. What kind of care should I be taking?

take tablet mucinac for 5 days
