How To Cure The Constant Coughing And Pain In Body?
I'm 15, I'm shivering cold. I had 7 blankets on last night but I was still freezing. I have asthma. I went to my doctor to talk to him about my coughing and breathing troubles recently. My body aches in my elbows, back, wrists, ankle, head, and chest. I felt to weak to move this morning, nauseated, and I've been out of energy for 3 weeks now. My asthma has been acting up every night for the past 3 weeks. Last week I was literally unable to breathe because of how tight my chest was. My asthma is doing fine now, but I just want to feel better. I have a barky loud cough that annoys my parents and comes often. I've been sick for 3 weeks.

Hi,
Welcome to health care magic,
Your cold,wheezing, cough could be due to upper respiratory infection or allergic rhinitis or bronchitis etc.
You should do some routine blood works and X-ray chest to rule out infection in lung.
He will require oral antibiotics with antipyretics, antihistamines in oral formulations.
Now,if he has been diagnosed with asthma already then he would require bronchodilators like beta agonists and anticholinergics in MDI or rotahaler.
In addition, antihistamines(like certzine or Allegra) and mast cell stabilizers are also have a useful in the treatment of asthma but for all this treatment.
With all above medication you will feel better in 2 to 3 days for which you need to consult physician or pulmonologist who will guide you further.
