What can we do to help my dad feel better? He's 57, retired, and usually manages his asthma well without meds, but recently he had a flare-up after cleaning the house. He's been using an Asthalin inhaler a bit more, but now on the fourth day, he still wheezes when breathing in and out and seems a bit uncomfortable. Any advice on what could help his symptoms?
