I'm a 34-year-old woman and I've been struggling with wheezing, asthma, and a constant cough and cold for years now. I've been using Asthalin inhalers and syrup every day for my wheezing and Ascoril syrup for the cough, but it just feels like things are getting worse. I'm really worried and wondering what kind of treatment I should be looking into, or if there are certain doctors I should meet, especially if things get critical. Can you give me some advice?
It sounds like your condition may need a more comprehensive approach. I recommend visiting a pulmonologist to reassess your asthma management and explore options like long-term control medications (e.g., inhaled corticosteroids). If you're experiencing frequent worsening, consider visiting a hospital with a specialized respiratory unit, such as a multispecialty hospital with 24-hour emergency care. If the symptoms worsen, don't hesitate to seek immediate medical attention.

I was curious if the lung fibrosis that develops after having COVID is usually restrictive or does it tend to be progressive? I've attached my CT scan report from after my COVID treatment for some context. During my hospital stay, I received remdesivir injections.
Post-COVID lung fibrosis is typically restrictive, meaning it limits lung expansion and reduces lung capacity. However, its progression can vary depending on the severity and individual response to treatment. If you have concerns, please consult your doctor for a more personalized assessment.
