I'm dealing with asthma attacks that won't let up for the past four days and I'm having a really hard cough with phlegm. I've been using my inhaler, but it just keeps coming back. What's going on?

Can you let me know where we can meet for a consultation tomorrow, either in the morning or evening? My wife has been having severe breathing problems for the past few days, and it worsens at night, disrupting her sleep.

I'm feeling feverish for the past 10 days, and it's been really worrying me. Back on May 17th, I had a bad case of breathlessness, so I saw a pulmonologist who recommended some tests. My IGE test result was 528 and the absolute eosinophils count was 600. He also had me do a PFT and then prescribed Spirodin M and Budetrol400 inhaler. What's puzzling is this constant feverish feeling, though I don't have any body pain, headache, or breathing problemsno symptoms like corona, thankfully. It's mostly after eating, but it doesnt seem connected to any specific food. Do you think there's any other test I should do, or should I go visit another doctor? Would love any advice you might have.

I'm 25 and having a bit of a scare here. I've been coughing up this black phlegm, dealing with nasal congestion, and feeling breathless, but it gets a bit better after I cough. I havent smoked ever, and I live in an area with clean air, so Im really confused. What could be going on with me? And what kind of medication should I be considering? Also, I'm not experiencing any cough or fever along with it.

it might be acute bronchitis
