What Causes Pain And Difficulty While Breathing?

My dad is overweight. He has been having a severe struggle to breath to the point that he can t take it anymore and tears up. He has become stressed and depressed. He went to the clinic but they only gave him a nasal spray which does not help at all. I was thinking there had to be something useful to sooth his pain other than exercise. Can an asthma inhaler help? I know there are different types but I don t know which one would be right for him.
