What Is The Treatment For Shortness Of Breath?
Hi I am Saillesh here. Recently when I exercise I feel weak and can't breathe. previously I had this same problem and the doctor gave me pills for asthma attack. It was alright for 4 months then it started again. So doctor should I take the same asthma pill again or just leave it until it cures.. and meanwhile control it by taking vitamin C. What should I do? I am really upset because I was an active person and I will exercise regularly, but now I can not do that because I am having shortage of breathe and I feel very weak.

Hi,
This may be exercise induced asthma. So you should do warmup exercises and even with this your status doesn't improve then montelukast 10 mg every day once will help you.
If severe or again problem appears then short acting bronchodilator inhaler should be used before exercise.
This will help you. For any further queries feel free to ask us.
