cough during last two months, not frequent but with a straining sound, after visit to a hill station(yercaud) the condition worsened, yesterday i had wheezing for the first time in life at 12
Hello dear... Wheezing is caused due to bronchoconstriction (obstruction of smaller airway passages) which is indicative of Hyper-responsiveness of air passages (seasonal allergy or asthma). Formoterol will provide symptomatic relief by causing bronchodilator (dilating the smaller airway passages, relieving the obstruction & increasing airflow to lungs)Budesonide is a corticosteroid which takes care of the inflammatory process in airways. Other than that, Montelukast preparation can also be used as a maintenance therapy to relieve symptoms of seasonal allergies & asthma by reducing bronchoconstriction. So.it will be better to consult a Pulmonologist for further management. And make sure that you are well protected from cold, dust & other allergens. Wishing you a good health. Thanks & take care
