HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, if this is the chronic obstructive disease then it need to be treated on conservative way, infection need to be ruled out, for the asthma, bronco dilator dilator can be tried, if it is not the infection then no need to worry about this, hope this information helps, take care and have a nice day.
