Question: What works for the inflammation part of Asthma/not the constriction!?
Everyone's always concerned about the bronchospasm/constriction part of asthma, which can be scary itself, and that's the part that I think is the dangerous part, right!?

However, for me, the actual inflammation, the pain/soreness, that lasts for days!.!.!.that part makes it uncomfortable for me and hard to breathe!.

Being that inhalers don't really work for treating that, what does!?Www@Answer-Health@Com


Answers:
if your asthma is that bad you should be asking a doctor and not Yahoo answers!!! asthma can become a medical emergency and so many have died from this, I have asthma and I can tell you that not being able to breath is worse than having a sore throat or inflammation any day, not getting oxygen into your blood stream or into you brain isnt good, and when you're low on oxygen you can become euphoric and not even realize you're very sick and thats how and when u can die from it!. you can see if you doctor can put you on steriods for awhile, that will work on the inflammation!. but please go see your doctorWww@Answer-Health@Com

Actually an inhalor would work for you, you need to be on a steroid such as fluticasone or mometasone!. Ask your doctor for Advair!. Alternatively, if Advair does not work, your doctor may prescribe you to take Prednisone (another steroid) in a pill form!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Steroids work for inflammation!. For asthma, you can take a daily inhaled steroid such as Flovent (fluticasone) or Pulmicort (budesonide)!.

For you, I think an inhaler combination like Advair (fluticasone/salmeterol) would be a good option!. It has a steroid (fluticasone) for the inflammation and a long-acting beta2-agonist (salmeterol) which is like a long-acting version of albuterol!. Daily steroid inhalation will keep the inflammation down!. These type of inhalers are for CONTROL -- they must be taken daily to prevent attacks!. Still keep a rescue inhaler on you at all times -- Advair or others like it won't help in an attack -- you'll still need a fast-acting inhaler like albuterolWww@Answer-Health@Com
