I'm really struggling with my asthma, especially when the weather changes. Right now, I'm dealing with a lot of coughing, and it's making it hard to breathe. Can you recommend any long-term solutions for this?

I'm a smoker who has quit recently, and I'm really interested in knowing how I can clean my lungs now. Could you tell me where I might be able to get this done and what the costs might look like? Also, if you could explain a little about the procedure, that would be great.

Hi, it's great that you've quit smoking! To help clean your lungs, you can undergo a treatment called pulmonary rehabilitation, which includes breathing exercises, exercise therapy, and sometimes medications. The cost can vary depending on your location and the clinic, but it typically ranges from 1,500 to 5,000 per session. It's always best to consult a pulmonologist to determine the most appropriate treatment plan for your specific needs.

I'm a bit confused right now. I recently had a pretty bad asthma attack, and my doctor switched me to this duolin inhaler. Before that, I was using the Rotahaler, mainly because it was cheaper. I'm trying to figure out if the duolin inhaler is actually better for me or if I can just go back to using the Rotahaler like before. Any advice on what I should do?

Duolin inhaler, containing a combination of Levosalbutamol and Ipratropium, is generally considered more effective than Rotahaler (containing only Levosalbutamol) for managing severe asthma symptoms, as it provides both bronchodilation and anti-inflammatory effects, so it's recommended to continue with Duolin inhaler as advised by your doctor.
