I'm having wheezing for the past couple of days, mostly at night and not so much during the day. My doctor told me to use one puff at night an hour before I go to sleep. I'm wondering if I should gargle my throat right after using the inhaler, or if there's anything else I should be doing. Also, if I stop using the inhaler after 15 days, could the wheezing come back?

My grandfather is in the ICU right now and I'm really worried because the display is showing he has low oxygen supply. Can a doctor explain what's happening and what this might mean for his condition?
Low oxygen supply in a critical condition like ICU can be concerning. It is important to address this issue promptly. One common medication used to increase oxygen supply is **Oxygen Therapy**. This involves administering oxygen through a mask or nasal prongs at a specific flow rate prescribed by the healthcare provider. The dosage and duration of oxygen therapy will be determined by the medical team based on your grandfather's condition. It is crucial to follow their instructions closely to ensure optimal oxygen delivery to his body tissues.
