I've been dealing with asthma and currently, Im using inhaled corticosteroids for it. I dont have any other health issues going on, so I'm wondering if it's safe for me to get the Covishield vaccine. Is there anything I should be worried about with the combination of the vaccine and my asthma treatment?

I'm just wondering if the Budamate 200 mcg inhaler could be harmful because I know it's a steroid. Is it as risky as other steroids? I'm also concerned about whether using it could lead to something like black fungus. I used it for about five days when I was recovering from COVID. Can you help me understand the possible side effects?

I've been experiencing this weird chest congestion and discomfort for about six months now. I went to see a cardiologist and got an echo test done, and they said my heart is fine. There's no pain coming from the heart area either. But this annoying chest pressure just keeps coming and going. It's not interfering with my daily activities, but I have been feeling more tired than usual. Breathing isn't an issue, thankfully. However, today I noticed a sore throat along with the chest congestion. There's no mucus with blood or anything alarming like that, but the discomfort is still there from my throat to my chest. Could you offer some advice on this?

I'm really worried about my dad who's 67 and lives in Haryana. It's super cold there, and every year he ends up with a wet cough. We saw a pulmonologist about two years ago who said to use Brozedex, Budecort Respules, and there was another medication which I'm not sure if it's Levolin or Duolin. But his doctor is currently out of town, and were having trouble reaching him. My dad used to smoke but quit in 2004 before his CABG. Could you help me figure out what the third medication might be?

It sounds like your father may be experiencing recurring respiratory issues due to the cold, especially given his smoking history and past CABG. The medications prescribed, such as **Brozedex** (a combination of bronchodilator and steroid), **Budecort Respule** (a steroid), and either **Levolin** or **Duolin** (bronchodilators), are commonly used to manage symptoms like wet cough and breathing difficulties. It would be advisable to continue these medications as prescribed but consult with another pulmonologist if symptoms worsen or if you're unsure about the third medication.
