I'm wondering if it's safe to use a nebulizer at home, especially with the ongoing COVID situation making hospital visits risky. Could you recommend a good brand and let me know what medication should be used with it?

View allI'm a regular weed smoker, and I've noticed lately that I'm coughing up bloody mucus. I'm pretty sure it's from my smoking habit. I think I might have bronchitis because the symptoms match up. Even before I started smoking, I used to cough every morning when I woke up. I've tried to cut back and even quit smoking. Can you tell me the best way to deal with this? Any remedies I should know about?
quitting smoking is the first and foremost thing you need to do. and then consult a pulmonologist for detailed evaluation. blood in sputum is not a small thing. don't ignore this further.

My dad's been on continuous medication, but he's still having a tough time breathing. He's got COPD, and he was diagnosed with it at the hospital about three months ago. We have oxygen support at home, but it doesn't seem to be helping much. I'm really worried about his condition. Is there something more we can do, or any advice you could give on managing this better?
kindly take one more puff of inhaler he is taking if he have these above symptoms
