Suggest Remedies For Chest Congestion And Shortness Of Breath

Considerations
Detailed Answer:
hello and thank you for sending the question.
I'm sorry to hear that you're dealing with congestion and shortness of breath. It sounds like you're dealing with a situation of asthmatic bronchitis.this can cause a significant amount of chest congestion as well as shortness of breath with mild to moderate exertion.
Since you have been using essentially a maximum of over-the-counter medication it might be necessary to consider discussion of a prescription.in this type of situation sometimes a combination of prednisone and an antibiotic might serve to be extremely beneficial in order to decrease inflammation in the lungs and eliminate a possible underlying infection.
since her symptoms seem to be persistent I would recommend that you discussed this with your primary care physician or local healthcare provider.I think you would benefit from a good physical examination and possibly prescription which might include the prednisone and antibiotic as I mentioned above.
Thank you again for sending the question and I hope you feel better soon.
Sincerely,
Dr. Galamaga
