I'm really worried because I've been coughing for two weeks now, and it's getting to the point where sometimes when I cough really hard, it completely blocks my throat and I can't breathe. It's scary, and on top of that, I've actually thrown up what I've just eaten a few times. I already saw a general doctor, but the meds they gave me aren't doing anything. Can you tell me which specialist I should talk to about this?

View allI'm really struggling with my asthma and sinus issues. My dad has asthma too, so it seems like it's something we're both dealing with. I've been on medication prescribed by my doctor for the last 3 years, like budamate 400 nasal spray and montair 10, but they haven't been helping much. Recently, I went to CMC Vellore, and my doctor there suggested I try budecort 200, fexinase, and lukotas for six months. But despite trying all this, I still get fevers and colds quite frequently, and I recently had a bout of influenza. Now, I'm having chest pain, and it's making breathing feel really heavy. It's like my problem is only getting worse, especially when the weather changes. I avoid cold things, but it doesn't seem to help much. I'm just really curious about whether asthma is ever totally curable because it seems to just keep coming back. What should I do?
Continue all the medications as advised by the physician.

I've been having some breathing issues whenever the seasons change, and it's been happening for the past few years. It usually comes and goes on its own, but this time, it's been going on for about 23 days. I'm also feeling a bit of heaviness in the upper center of my chest, which feels really strange when I breathe. I don't have a fever, sore throat, or other flu-like symptoms. A few days ago, I started taking Grilinctus because it was recommended by a doctor for the same issue before, along with some other medicines that I can't remember now. I even got an Asthalin inhaler for emergencies, though I've never used an inhaler before, and I haven't tried this one yet either. While the breathing problem seems slightly better, the chest heaviness is making me anxious. Could this be asthma or possibly a heart problem? It's kind of stressing me out because it's hard to see a doctor right now with everything going on. Any advice on what I should do?
yes you might have asthma ,just do some confirmatiory tests

I'm a bit worried about the X-ray results that mention "haziness" in the left mid and lower zones of my chest. What could this mean? Should I be concerned about it, and what kind of follow-up do you recommend?
The X-ray report indicates haziness in the left mid and lower lung zones, which could suggest inflammation, infection, or a possible buildup of fluid. It's important to correlate this finding with your symptoms and clinical history for a more accurate diagnosis. I recommend discussing the results with your doctor for further evaluation and appropriate management.
