Hello.
Thank you for asking at HCM.
I went through your query and understand your concern.
I would like to make following suggestions to you:
1. Were I treating you, I would suggest you regular intranasal
corticosteroids (
Budesonide or
Fluticasone) inhaler and
montelukast. I would suggest you to use
salbutamol inhaler on as-and-when-needed basis for asthma symptoms/breathlessness/
wheezing.
2. I would suggest you allergy testing, which will help you identify the substances you may be allergic to and also to know the measures to avoid them.
Based on allergy testing, an Allergist-Immunologist may prescribe you allergen specific
immunotherapy which works on immune system to improve your allergies gradually on long-term basis.
3. I would like to mention here that all the allopathic medicines for asthma can only "control" the asthma symptoms and cannot "cure" asthma. If possible, allergen specific immunotherapy can help you to improve allergy with minimizing medicine requirement.
4. In general, I would suggest you to avoid exposure to dusts, smokes & air pollution.
5. Regular breathing exercises and a healthy nutrition rich in vitamins & minerals (adequate amounts of green leafy vegetables, fruits, sprouts, etc) will also help you in a long run by improving your lung capacity and immunity respectively.
To summarize, I would like to mention that the complete treatment of asthma requires combination of appropriate medicines, allergy evaluation & immunotherapy, avoidance of precipitant factors, role of complementary medicine and life style changes including nutrition & environment. Asthma is a chronic disease and requires patience while treatment.
Hope above suggestions will be helpful to you.
Should you have any further query, please feel free to ask at HCM.
Wish you the best of the health.
Thank you & Regards.
