Difficulty in breathing

2018-10-08 06:45:08
I'm having difficulty in breathing and it seems like an asthmatic patient. I smoke rarely and drink chilled beer occasionally. Few years back I consulted a doctor and he said that I have a bronchitis. I take turmeric powder whenever I feel difficulty in breathing. Kindly suggest some remedies.

Turmeric power has medicinal values but for asthma I don't know may be some naturopathy specialist can comment. As far as I understand your asthma is pretty much controlled except for a few triggers. Kindly avoid those triggers. Get a lung function test done so you can objectively assess your situation.
