I've been dealing with asthma for about 10 years now, and it's really frustrating. I don't smoke or drink, and I eat meat, but I'm always just resorting to my inhaler. My family doc thinks it's just an allergy, but I'm really hoping to find a way to get past this. Do you have any insights on how I might be able to cure or better manage my asthma?

I'm worried about my situation. I had bronchitis three years ago and have been using an inhaled corticosteroid and fexofenadine regularly since then. But even with that, my doctor can still hear rhonchi through the stethoscope. Is there any way to completely get rid of the inflammation in my bronchi and stop the rhonchi sounds? Its even worse if I stop using the inhaler. What can I do?

you should not suddenly stop the inhaler, you should reduce its usage gradually. start steam inhalation
