I've been dealing with wheezing and a cold since last night. I took azithromycin 500 and a tablet with serratiopeptidase and diclofenac sodium, but now the wheezing has gotten worse. Should I consider taking methylprednisolone to help with the wheezing?

I've been dealing with asthma for over 8 years now and my doctor prescribed me a budesonide formoterol inhaler. Things have improved a bit, but I still have to use it, especially in winter. I just got over COVID about two weeks ago, but I've been noticing that if I sleep with the fan on high and no blanket, I get breathing issues because of the cold. This even happens during the summer. I always need a blanket when I sleep. Last night, around 3am, I had a breathing problem and tightness in my chest. My oxygen level was 89, but it went back above 93 after I turned off the fan and used a blanket. During the day, my oxygen is above 95. I'm worried because my oxygen levels drop at night. I've had this issue since I was a child, but back then, I didnt have a way to monitor my SpO2. Is this normal in asthma?

it might be due to nasal congestion, take steam inhalation before you sleep. it is not normal. there might be slight positional variations,but not this much

I'm having some trouble after using Kala hit spray on my balcony; I might've used too much. Ever since then, I've been having breathing problems and discomfort. I saw a cardiologist who ran several tests, like hemoglobin, thyroid, chest x-ray, and echo, but they all came back fine. Even with that, I'm still feeling uneasy and it's hard to breathe. What should I do?

Normal,nothing to worry ok.
