I have a respiratory infection and asthma. I have been having asthma attacks all day with coughing fits where I can t stop the coughing and then I feel pressure building up in my head and chest and left arm. my left arm hurts like someone squeezed it too tight like a tight blood pressure cuff from my armpit to my elbow. muscle pain all through my torso from coughing for days. I m exhausted and I don t have health care.

Hello
As you mentioned that you are having asthma and respiratory infection .
There is pain in the chest and radiating to the left arm and head , so I recommend you consult a physician and get in ECHO to rule out cardiac involvement due to asthma .
When asthmatic patient visit my clinic I prescribe them to take montelukast+bambuterole tablet twice or once in day .
Hot coffee and steam inhalation also provide instant relief .
Since you are also having cough so take dextromethophan syrup .
Consult a physician and get his prescription for these drugs.
Good luck.
