I've been dealing with a blocked nose that suddenly turned runny, but what's really worrying me is this constant need to yawn or take deep breaths. This started just yesterday. I'm 19 years old and weigh 95 kgs. Should I be concerned about these symptoms? What could be causing this breathing issue?

I've been taking asthalin pills and accidentally took 4mg instead of 2mg for 35 days. Now I'm having some weird symptoms like a fast heartbeat and shivering. I've switched to using an inhaler for 34 days but those symptoms haven't gone away. I keep waking up suddenly when I'm about to fall asleep, and it's freaking me out a bit. Any advice on how I can deal with these side effects?

I'm dealing with a sore throat and a lot of coughing. Can you tell me what medicine would be best to use for nebulization in this situation? I'm a bit worried and want to make sure I'm using the right treatment.

For throat pain and severe coughing, nebulization with **levosalbutamol or budesonide** (as advised by a doctor) can help reduce inflammation and ease breathing. Use warm salt water gargles for throat relief and stay hydrated. Consult a doctor for proper dosage.

Is it okay for a 17-year-old boy to use an asthalin inhaler? If I start using it, do I need to carry it everywhere I go? Could it actually lead to more breathing issues after using it? I checked online and found info saying the inhaler works for about 4-6 hours after taking two puffs. Does that mean the breathing problems will definitely return after those hours?

consult pulmonologist he will guide you about good inhalers that u have to take for only one or two times according to your requirements
