I've been having a productive cough for the past two days, and it's really bothering me, especially in the mornings right after I wake up and then again at bedtime. Should I be worried about this, and is there anything I can do to help with it?

View allI'm really worried about my mom's cough. A few years back, especially during winter, she was using a nebulizer. Do you think it's okay to start using it for her again now?

Can I switch from using Formonide 200 Respicap to the Formonide 200 puff inhaler? I mainly deal with asthma issues during hot summers, but I'm usually fine for about 10 months of the year. Just wondering if making this switch might help or if I should stick to what I'm currently using. What's the difference and any pros or cons I should know about?
yes you can use it

My mom's been dealing with some worrisome health issues lately. She has this cold cough and experiences shortness of breath, especially at night. We found out about some lower fibrotic changes in her left lung, but the HRCT and chest X-ray both came out normal. She's already been given some strong antibiotics, but there hasn't been any noticeable improvement. We're located in Ahmedabad and I'm really unsure about what to do next. Can you provide some guidance or suggestions on how to proceed?
I'm sorry to hear about your mom's struggles. Fibrotic changes can sometimes cause chronic symptoms despite normal imaging. Consider consulting a pulmonologist for further evaluation, possibly for inhalers or anti-inflammatory treatments, and to rule out other causes like asthma or GERD. Stay strongshe's lucky to have your care.
