I've noticed I tend to take deep breaths pretty often. Is it normal or healthy to do so all the time? My breathing rate is about 15-16 breaths per minute. What do you think?

View allI'm an asthmatic and I've been waking up every night 2 to 3 times to use my asthalin inhaler for the last 10 years. I also use it 2 to 3 times during the day. But when there's a sudden change in the climate at night, I take montek lc and notice that the next day I don't need the inhaler at all. I'm wondering if I can use montek lc every day instead of the inhaler. Which one would be the better option for me?
It's important to note that Montelukast (Montek LC) helps control inflammation and reduce asthma symptoms, but it doesn't provide immediate relief like your inhaler. While Montelukast can help manage symptoms long-term, it's typically not a substitute for your inhaler in acute situations. I recommend discussing your routine with your doctor to ensure both your long-term management and immediate relief needs are addressed effectively.

I'm a 34-year-old woman and I've been struggling with wheezing, asthma, and a constant cough and cold for years now. I've been using Asthalin inhalers and syrup every day for my wheezing and Ascoril syrup for the cough, but it just feels like things are getting worse. I'm really worried and wondering what kind of treatment I should be looking into, or if there are certain doctors I should meet, especially if things get critical. Can you give me some advice?
It sounds like your condition may need a more comprehensive approach. I recommend visiting a pulmonologist to reassess your asthma management and explore options like long-term control medications (e.g., inhaled corticosteroids). If you're experiencing frequent worsening, consider visiting a hospital with a specialized respiratory unit, such as a multispecialty hospital with 24-hour emergency care. If the symptoms worsen, don't hesitate to seek immediate medical attention.

I'm really worried because I've been dealing with a cough, fever, and breathing problems for the past three months. I've been to the hospital and they said it's pneumonia, but even with the medication, I don't feel any better. Can you tell me what the best treatment would be?
we need to know the severity of pneumonia and then start treatment
