I'm dealing with asthma, but for the past 45 months, I've been feeling breathless constantly. There's a lot of yawning and burping happening too. I had an X-ray, which showed everything's fine. I've tried nebulization and other treatments my doctor recommended, but nothing seems to work. Could you offer some advice on what might be happening?

View allI recently got a chest X-ray as part of a visa medical exam, and the report said both my hila are prominent. I'm really concerned about what this means. Can you explain the possible causes and what I might be able to do to address this before my retest?
Prominent hila on a chest X-ray can be caused by various conditions such as infections, inflammation, or even tumors. To determine the exact cause, further evaluation may be needed. In the meantime, to reduce inflammation and promote healing, you can take over-the-counter anti-inflammatory medications like ibuprofen. I recommend taking Ibuprofen 400mg every 6 hours as needed for pain and inflammation. However, it is important to follow up with a healthcare provider for a proper diagnosis and treatment plan.

I'm having wheezing for the past couple of days, mostly at night and not so much during the day. My doctor told me to use one puff at night an hour before I go to sleep. I'm wondering if I should gargle my throat right after using the inhaler, or if there's anything else I should be doing. Also, if I stop using the inhaler after 15 days, could the wheezing come back?
Yes ,gargling is advised to the patient inorder to prevent fungal infection.

I've been having some strange breathing issues lately, and it's kind of worrying. It all started last Friday, August 4th, after I ate something that made me sick, and I ended up throwing up. Ever since then, my breathing has felt weird. I feel a bit short of breath, and it seems hard to take a deep breath. I'm feeling really stressed about it. What could be going on? Should I be concerned?
Budesonide 200 inhaler sos for breathing difficulty to the patient.
