I'm feeling kind of worried because I've been experiencing some heavy breathing on and off for a few days now. I have an allergy and I'm already taking montelukast tablets and using my inhaler with 250mg three times a day. The weird thing is, I don't have any trouble when I'm walking or jogging, and my oxygen levels are good at 98%. Could you help me understand what's going on?

I'm worried because he has allergic asthma, and right now, only 20% of his lungs are working. Is there any treatment or method, like therapy, medicine, or even surgery, that could help his lungs get back to 100%? Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Try to identify the triggering factor and try to avoid it,that is the tretament for urticaria ,and levocet is the drug of choice,apart from that consume more fruits and stay hydrated that will help in fighting the allergen
