I'm worried because it feels like I'm not breathing well enough. I have to take a really deep breath every 10 seconds or so, and it's messing with my sleep. This has been going on for about 4 years now. I did see a pulmonologist and had a PFT test done, which came out fine, but I'm still having issues. I've tried different medications, including Deriphyllin, with no success. Any advice on what to do next?

View allMy dad's been dealing with this really thick white phlegm and a cough every day after he got over bronchitis a few days ago. Before, the phlegm was yellowish for about 5 or 6 days, and now it's just super thick and white. Do you think this will clear up soon? It bothers him a lot, especially because he constantly feels like he has to clear his throat when he talks. He's not running a fever or anything, and he's breathing fine. It's just this cough and phlegm that's driving him nuts. What do you think we should do?
tab mucinac for 3 days , tab tusq for 3 days

I'm currently using a Foracort steroid-based inhaler and was considering switching to the Seroflo inhaler with salmeterol. Are there any concerns or issues I should be aware of if I make this change?
Seroflo (Salmeterol + Fluticasone) and Foracort (Formoterol + Budesonide) are both steroid-based inhalers, but they differ in their active ingredients, with Seroflo containing Salmeterol (a longer-acting bronchodilator) and Fluticasone (an inhaled corticosteroid), whereas Foracort contains Formoterol (a faster-acting bronchodilator) and Budesonide (an inhaled corticosteroid); switching from Foracort to Seroflo may require medical supervision, as it may cause changes in asthma control, and your doctor may need to adjust the dosage or monitor you for potential side effects.
