Asthma/repeated chest infections

2017-12-10 11:22:45
Hi I've had asthma since I was a child and it tends to flare up when I have a cold. I've had two chest infections in the past three weeks and my asthma has been a real problem. I've been on three courses of antibiotics and between courses I've been really struggling with my breathing and my asthma. I've even been to the ER for treatment. I am currently on antibiotics but still have low grade fevers and have had bad right sided chest pain for the past four days, it even hurts to touch it.

You need PFT.the findings will definitely indicate asthma.Then you need ICS+laba for more effective management.For right sided chest pain paracetamol will be helpful
