Suggest Treatment For Shortness Of Breath And Cough
hi, I have shortness of breath, a wheezing cough, and some flem. I do have asthma and i m taking ProAir HFA, and. Also I do have Symbicort, that I take once in morning and night. I have QVAR 80mcg, but was told not to take it while taking the Symbicort. Been walking in the mornings about 4 miles with little of the above symtoms, but when at rest the symtoms comes back fairly intense. Why????

Hi,
Image result for shortness of breath treatment. Pursed-lip breathing helps to reduce breathlessness by slowing the pace of a person's breathing. This is particularly useful if shortness of breath is being caused by anxiety. To try pursed-lip breathing at home, a person should: sit upright in a chair with their shoulders relaxed.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
