Will Drinking Warm Water Or Stem Help Allergic Asthma And GERD?

I have both allergic Asthma/ Bronchitis as well as GERD. I'm 29 yr old woman and weigh 94 kgs. Sometimes I can't distinguish symptoms of one from another, that forces me to take medicine (Deri[hyllin/ asthalin pump, eno etc) for both to feel better. Would drinking warm water and / or steam help?

Hi,
Thanks for your question,
See your have asthama and gerd,
In asthama their is bronchioconstriction and gerd,is reflux of gastric juices into oesophagus,
Steam and drinking hot will only help when you have other allergic symptoms with asthama like sinusitis,phyringities,nasal congestion,but it wont help to relieve bronchioconstiction,you will need to use bronchodialater along with steam,
Regarding gerd,stem and hot water won't cause much difference it will need antaacid like proton pump inhibitor to relieve symptoms
Hope this information's helps.
