I'm really worried about my dad. He's been dealing with asthma since 2010, and now it seems like his condition is getting worse. He's using inhalers, rotahalers, and other meds every day, but it doesn't seem to be helping much. Is there any real cure for this? Plus, he's been having skin issues that I think are from the side effects of all the meds. His overall health is not great either. What can we do to help improve his situation?

View allI've been dealing with a bit of a concern ever since I had COVID-19 last April. I got through it in about a week without needing to go to the hospital or taking any heavy-duty meds, but now a couple of times a day, I notice a light wheezing in my chest. It usually happens in the morning when I wake up, and to get rid of it, I end up coughing hard, which brings up a chunk of phlegm. I dont have a constant cough, only when I try to clear the wheezing. Is this normal post-COVID, or should I be worried about it?
Syrup salbutamol 10 ml orally thrice daily is advised to the patient.

I'm dealing with a weird issue where I cough up this jelly-like stuff that comes from deep in my chest. In the mornings, my spit has these dark brown-black specks and its a bit thicker than usual. Im 23 and used to smoke a lot but quit about two months ago because of this. I do have acid reflux, but its mostly under control. I'm worried and can't figure out why this is happening, and sometimes it's so thick that it makes me vomit. What could be going on?
Yes that could be due to GERD ,continue using PPIs and consume bland diet and have adequate rest this will help you
