I've been hearing mixed things about steaming and its effectiveness for people affected by corona. Some sources like blogs and newspapers say it doesn't help at all, while debates on news channels and YouTube videos also suggest it's not beneficial. I'm really confused and concerned. Could you shed some light on whether steaming is actually useful for someone dealing with corona?

View allI've been dealing with this annoying throat irritation and wet cough with phlegm for a while now. I've already tried all kinds of antibiotics, but nothing seems to help. One doctor prescribed Prednisolone, and it made me feel better while I was on it, but as soon as I stopped, all the symptoms came back, like the phlegm and weird throat sounds while I'm sleeping. Im trying to figure out why it keeps coming back. Could there be something else going on that's causing these symptoms to persist?

I've been noticing a weird sound coming from my lungs every time I breathe. It's really thin, and sometimes I have a cough too. Whenever I work hard, I get short of breath. I haven't had any chest pain or noticed any blood, but the sound in my breath and the shortness of breath are concerning. What do you think might be going on?
It sounds like you may be experiencing mild respiratory issues, such as wheezing or reactive airways, which can cause shortness of breath and a dry cough, especially with physical exertion. I recommend seeing a doctor to assess your lung function and rule out conditions like asthma or other respiratory concerns.

I've been non-stop coughing for three days now and the longest I can go without coughing is just a minute or two. There's a lot of phlegm and it's painful when I take deep breaths. I've already tried using my rescue inhaler and the nebulizer, but I'm still coughing a lot and wheezing. What could be going on, and what else can I do?
continue nebulization and take cough syrup ascoril twice a day
