Severe asthma needs regular control with prescribed inhalers (usually a steroid + bronchodilator), not just relief medicines. Avoid triggers like dust, smoke, cold air, and infections, and use a spacer for better inhaler effect. Always keep a rescue inhaler handy for sudden breathlessness, and if symptoms are frequent, worsening, or disturb sleep, consult your doctor to adjust long-term treatment and prevent attacks.

Your symptoms suggest a flare of chronic bronchitis or underlying asthma, and the fact that you still have breathlessness despite repeated inhaler use is concerning. This could mean a severe exacerbation that needs urgent medical care, please seek a doctor or hospital immediately. Until then, stay upright, continue your prescribed rescue inhaler as directed (don?t overuse), avoid cold air and dust, and try steam inhalation, but do not delay medical evaluation as you may need nebulization, steroids, or oxygen support.

For a sputum-producing cough in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, continue your regular inhalers (bronchodilators/inhaled steroids) as prescribed, and use steam inhalation and good hydration to help loosen mucus; doctors may add mucolytics to clear phlegm. If there is increased sputum, change in color, fever, or worsening breathlessness, you may need antibiotics or oral steroids under medical guidance. Avoid smoking, dust, and cold air, and seek medical review if symptoms worsen or do not improve.

Cough with chest congestion causing breathing difficulty may be due to infections or conditions like bronchitis or asthma. Take steam inhalation, drink warm fluids, and avoid cold air or dust; medicines like paracetamol can help for discomfort, but you may need bronchodilators or other treatment from a doctor. Since breathing difficulty can be serious, seek medical care promptly if symptoms persist or worsen.
