Allergies from mowing? Wheezing?!
Question: Allergies from mowing!? Wheezing!?
My brother in law had to mow grass for 2 weeks (for his Army job) and now he is wheezing like crazy!. It sounds terrible, like he has asthma!. He is going to the allergy doctor tomorrow, but are there any remedies he can do tonight to alleviate some of this tight-chested wheezing!?

If possible give him some benadryl to help with the wheezing and reaction!. It will help to relieve the tightness!. It's possible that he really does have asthma, too!. I wasn't diagnosed with it until I was an adult!.
You can also try giving him strong, black coffee!. I know it sounds weird, but when I've had trouble with severe wheezing!. The caffeine dialates the bronchial tubes and can help his breathing!. Start with 1/3 of a cup of coffee, then in 10 to 15 minutes another 1/3 cup!. If his breathing eases give him the last third and hopefully he'll get at least some relief from the tightness!. It's an awful feeling, I hope he improves!
If his breathing worsens you might want to take him to the hospital before going to the doctor, since you can go from wheezy to unable to breathe quick!.
