I've been having a tough time with wheezing, chest congestion, and breathing issues whenever the weather changes or I'm around dust. I'm allergic to dust and pollution, and it's really becoming a problem. Sometimes, I have to rely on my inhaler, but I'm trying to find a way to live a healthier life without having to use it so much. Any advice on how I can manage this better and reduce my inhaler use?

Good decision
