How to reduce weezing and heavy breathing problem - #11444

Dara Chetana

For the past few months, I have been suffering from breathing difficulties. I have been using the Foracort 400 inhaler, but I have not visited a doctor for a long time. Recently, my condition has become worse. Since this morning, I have been experiencing headache, throat pain, and severe difficulty in breathing. Many times I feel like I am not able to take in enough air, and there is loud wheezing which can be heard by people around me. This makes me anxious and restless because I am unable to breathe peacefully. Along with this, I am coughing continuously. Sometimes the saliva I spit after coughing is white, and other times it contains mucus. This has been happening for months and has made my daily life very difficult, but in the past few days, it has become even more disturbing. I am very worried because I have seen how it feels when someone is admitted in the hospital, and I am afraid of going through that myself. I just want to get rid of this breathing problem and feel normal again. Kindly suggest good medicines or treatment that can give me proper relief.

Dr. Bharat Joshi
I’m a periodontist and academician with a strong clinical and teaching background. Over the last 4 years and 8 months, I’ve been actively involved in dental education, guiding students at multiple levels including dental hygienist, BDS, and MDS programs. Currently, I serve as a Reader at MMCDSR in Ambala, Haryana—a role that allows me to merge my academic passion with hands-on experience. Clinically, I’ve been practicing dentistry for the past 12 years. From routine procedures like scaling and root planing to more advanced cases involving grafts, biopsies, and implant surgeries. Honestly, I still find joy in doing a simple RCT when it’s needed. It’s not just about the procedure but making sure the patient feels comfortable and safe. Academically, I have 26 research publications to my credit. I’m on the editorial boards of the Archives of Dental Research and Journal of Dental Research and Oral Health, and I’ve spent a lot of time reviewing manuscripts—from case reports to meta-analyses and even book reviews. I was honored to receive the “Best Editor” award by Innovative Publications, and Athena Publications recognized me as an “excellent reviewer,” which honestly came as a bit of a surprise! In 2025, I had the opportunity to present a guest lecture in Italy on traumatic oral lesions. Sharing my work and learning from peers globally has been incredibly fulfilling. Outside academics and clinics, I’ve also worked in the pharmaceutical sector as a Drug Safety Associate for about 3 years, focusing on pharmacovigilance. That role really sharpened my attention to detail and deepened my understanding of drug interactions and adverse effects. My goal is to keep learning, and give every patient and student my absolute best.

Given the severity of your symptoms and the fact that they’re worsening, it’s important to address the underlying cause promptly. The symptoms you’re describing—wheezing, cough with phlegm, feeling of breathlessness, and throat pain—could possibly point towards conditions like asthma exacerbation, a respiratory infection, or even chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Since your breathing difficulties have gotten worse and are accompanied by headaches and throat pain, you should seek medical attention as soon as possible. It’s crucial to have a healthcare provider evaluate your condition to ensure an accurate diagnosis and to prevent complications.

While your use of a Foracort inhaler suggests a history of asthma or similar condition, relying solely on this without regular medical evaluation isn’t advisable, particularly when symptoms are escalating. For immediate relief from wheezing and breathlessness, a bronchodilator inhaler (like salbutamol) may be more appropriate. These provide quicker relief in acute episodes. However, make sure to follow-up with a healthcare provider, preferably within a day, for an examination. They may suggest spirometry or other tests to assess lung function, or a chest X-ray or blood tests if an infection is suspected.

Managing triggers is also important—avoid allergens, smoke, pollution, or any known irritants to your lungs. Staying hydrated can help with mucus congestion, yet the priority here is seeing a doctor. Your symptoms, specifically the severity and duration, might necessitate oral steroids or other prescription drugs which must be tailored to your specific condition by a medical professional. Delaying medical treatment could increase your risk of complications, so prioritizing a doctor’s visit is vital.
