I'm struggling with a lot of phlegm in my throat every morning. I have asthma, so sometimes I get short of breath. I've been using nebulisation which helps, but it's not solving the phlegm issue. I've tried making myself vomit to clear my throat, but then I end up with an infection in my esophagus, and I feel like there's still something stuck in my throat after eating. It's making it really hard to eat properly. Can you help me figure out what's going on and what I can do about it?

I've just been diagnosed with mild intermittent asthma and my doctor prescribed the Foracort 200 brown inhaler. I've been using it for 5 days now, but I haven't really noticed any improvement. How long does it typically take to work? Is there anything else I should be doing, or is it normal to wait a bit longer to see results? Would love some guidance on this.
It can take a few days to a couple of weeks to notice significant improvement with inhalers like Foracort 200, as they help reduce inflammation in the airways. If you're not feeling better soon, it's a good idea to follow up with your doctor for further evaluation.

I'm having some troubles with my breathing and I'm feeling really worried. It's like I can't take a deep breath properly and my brain feels like it's not functioning properly. I've been feeling constantly tired and my head feels pressured, almost like the oxygen isn't reaching my brain even though I'm breathing normally. It's a consistent issue that just doesn't go away. Could there be something wrong with how the oxygen is getting to my brain? I'm really looking for some guidance on this. Please help me understand what's going on.
