Is it possible for me to completely get rid of wheezing if I stick to a strict medication plan, diet, and exercise within a year? I've been eager to join marine engineering since I was a kid, and I really need to get myself fully prepared for it. I've been dealing with wheezing for the past couple of years, mostly in the mornings when I wake up, but sometimes it happens at other times too. I'm set to join a marine college next year after finishing my BTech, and I need to be in top-notch medical condition. I'm thinking about starting swimming and running every day with the right medical advice and proper diet. Do you think this could help me get fit enough, without any wheezing issues, in a year's time?

I've been feeling really out of breath no matter what I do, whether I'm just getting up, sitting down, moving around, or doing any kind of work. It's really concerning me. What could be causing this breathlessness, and should I be worried?

You may be experiencing symptoms of asthma. I recommend using an inhaler such as Ventolin (albuterol) to help relieve your breathlessness. The usual dosage for Ventolin inhaler is 1-2 puffs every 4-6 hours as needed for shortness of breath. It is important to use it as directed by your healthcare provider.

I'm 48 and have been dealing with asthma for about 4 years. I've been taking Telekast L once a day and Deriphyllin twice a day for it. I don't have any issues with blood pressure or diabetes. But lately, I've noticed something strange. For the past two days, just after I fall asleep, I wake up suddenly like I'm gasping for air. It feels like my breath stops, and I get this weird sensation like ants are biting all over my body. I'm really worried about what could be causing this. Could you give me an idea of what might be happening, what kind of treatment I should look into, and if there are any medical tests I should consider? May God bless you.

do one ecg and chest xray and proceed if any findings are there. if no findings then take tablet pantoprazole for 3 days

I'm dealing with an itchy throat and a tight feeling in my chest for the past four months. I've tried acidity meds, but nothing seems to work. I'm wondering if spondylitis could be causing these issues. I also feel like my anxiety has ramped up because of the whole COVID situation, which might be making it worse. And sometimes, it feels like I can't take deep breaths properly. Could you please give me some advice?

no spondylitis will not cause above symptoms, take steam inhalation
