I have recently started running every day. After about 2 minutes my lungs start to burn really bad and i start coughing. I also get very itchy. Does anyone know why this happens?
i have a similar problem -sounds like 'activity induced asthma'. ask your doctor for a resuce (albuterol) inhaler - that's what mine gave me. i take a puff or 2 about 5 mins before i start exercise - it helps me.

Your problem isn’t just the inhaler, it’s that few doctors understand asthma.
I use the Ventolin inhaler but, honestly, what has really helped me is cutting out a lot of dairy in my diet. I drink AT LEAST 8 big glasses of water per day and avoid all dairy: milk, cheese, etc.
I won’t say I never have dairy but after a month of cutting way back on dairy, I noticed I wasn’t needing my inhaler as often.
Also, take a product with Guaifenesin in it like Mucinex. Guaifenesin is good for people with asthma. I buy stuff at the Dollar Store that has Guaifenesin in it and it really helps me.

If you're an asthmatic, how can you tell the difference between an asthma attack and a panic attack?

I've had asthma for approximately 14 years but it's gradually getting worse as I get older and my attacks are more frequent. I've been put on additional preventative medicine but have always wondered about the difference between asthma and anxiety/panic attacks. I'm not sure if I experience the latter because my asthma does scare me on occasion. Is it normal to get scared during an attack? How can you tell if it's just a little fear or full blown anxiety?
Things I have been experiencing lately are: wheezy cough, chest soreness and aches, breathlessness, and feeling as if weights are sitting on my chest. Sometimes I feel achey and weak all over. At times, I get frustrated when my asthma is out of control because it's hard to breathe but I do not hyperventilate or experience a racing heart. I just have difficulty getting a breath and I become really achey, especially after I take my rescue inhaler.
What am I experiencing and is it typical for an asthma attack or panic attack?
I think you're experiencing asthma attacks. I have asthma and anxiety and I don't know.. I guess I just "know" the difference when it happens. An asthma attack is like.. no matter WHAT you do, you can breathe in or out without feeling like someone's choking the life out of you until you puff your inhaler. An anxiety attack is more… well.. i can feel it coming on. My body starts shaking a little, my mouth goes dry, and I hyperventilate. When it comes to actual breathing, I can better control my breathing during an anxiety attack as opposed to an asthma attack.
This is probably one of the best questions I've read so far. You should ask a doctor about it though. These are just my experiences. Great question =)

Ive been really sick for the past few days and started coughing up phlegm.
I have a fever and a sore throat, which just makes the phlegm and coughing hurt more i guess. I have no apetite for food either. I cant go out and buy any special remedies or stuff since im not even 14 yet.
How can i get rid of the phlegm with household supplies?
buy strepsils.. it will make ur sorethroat less painful and makes u feel relaxed… and try not drinking cold drinks and food.. try soups and the like…use bactidol or any mouthwas right after you brush ur teeth so the bacteria inside your mouth will be removed.. and lasty.. try asking your parents about it…

I have Bronchoal Asthma. My doctor said it is not like other asthma. He also said it was the worst form of asthma. I really don't use any breathing devices much anymre and I very rarly feel breathless
two types bronchial asthma & cardiac asthma. In ur case it is an hypersensitive reaction, the basophill bursts & realease a chemical & it constricts the broncii thus u feel breathless
