What Are The Treatments For Sore Trachea And Pain During Coughing And Breathing For An Asthma Patient?

My Trachea or Larynx is really sore. It seems that when I cough, swallow, or even breathe it starts to hurt and has a sharp pain. Any suggestions on what to do. I have asthma and that has gotten worse and my inhaler also isnt working with this problem =.

Hello dear,

The symptoms as mentioned in your post suggest that you might be having Allergic tracheo-bronchitis.
Examination of the throat using a laryngoscope and X ray of the chest will be helpful in clinching the diagnosis.

Management includes:
1. Asthalin & Seroflo inhaler- provide symptomatic relief by causing broncho-dilation (dilating the smaller airway passages, relieving the obstruction & increasing airflow to lungs)
So, you can use it whenever you are having an acute attack.
2. Montelukast preparations- used as a maintenance therapy to relieve symptoms of seasonal allergies & asthma.
3. Antihistamine preparations like Allegra & Cough expectorant syrup for symptomatic relief.
4. A course of antibiotics may be taken to prevent secondary bacterial attack.
5. Maintain adequate hydration & take a healthy balance diet.
6. Also make sure that you are well protected from cold, dust & other allergens.

Wishing you a good health.
Take care.
