Allergist and Immunologist 's  Response
Hello.

Thank you for asking at HCM.

I went through your history.

Odimont-LC and Formonide-100 are used for treatment of asthma. From your complaints of nose blocking and frequent cold, I think you are also having allergic rhinitis.

Asthma is a chronic disease but with proper understanding of asthma and use of asthma medications, it usually does not hamper normal activities of patients including sports and exercise. So most important thing for you is to take all the medications regularly.

Asthma has so many types. Hence I would suggest you to consult an Allergist-Immunologist who will advise you allergy testing. This will help you to know what to avoid to prevent asthma symptoms. Also, he may advise you allergen immunotherapy which may modify your immunesystem to reduce allergy symptoms.

I would also suggest you to perform regular breathing exercises & avoid dusts-smoke-air pollution as much as possible.

If you have symptoms of GERD (gastroesophageal reflux disease) like regurgitation of food after heavy/spicy meal, burning in chest, nausea, vomiting, etc I would suggest you to continue a drug like Neksium-40 mg (which you are already taking) for at least 8 weeks. Also please avoid heavy spicy meals, especially at evening, and try to have a relaxing brief walk after evening meals. This will help.

Asthma is a dynamic disease which tends to improve and worsen over years, this depends upon type of asthma and patient's life style. But with proper care, I'm sure you will be able to live a normal life like most other normal persons.

Hope this will be helpful to you.

Wish you best of the health.

Regards.
