Asthma/repeated chest infections
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.
