I'm a bit worried about whether it's safe for my wife to take Asthakind DX syrup now that she's 27 weeks pregnant. Her pulmonologist included it with some other medications. Should we be concerned about any potential effects on the baby?

I've been dealing with this breathing issue for a while now. I've seen several doctors and had X-rays and blood tests over the last 4 years, and thankfully, they're saying I don't have asthma. One doctor mentioned I have some symptoms of bronchitis, but still, it's not that. For the past year, I've been trying homeopathic medicines, but in the last 6 months, there's been no real improvement. Actually, since yesterday, breathing has become a struggle again, and it all started after I drank some very cold sugarcane juice the afternoon of the day before yesterday. There's also intense pain right in the middle of my chest. My parents are really worried, and it's stressful for all of us. Can you suggest a specialist in Mumbai who might be able to help?

I've been getting this slight cough since May and I don't usually cough a lot, but I feel like there's some chest congestion. Could it be that there's thickened mucus there? This seems to happen once a year now for about the past 5 years. Normally, I just take regular cough syrup and it goes away, but this time I haven't taken anything. Should I be worried or do anything different?

take tablet mucinac for 5 days twice a day
