I m really worried. I;m a 15 year old female. I have exercise induced asthma . Recently I ve haven;t been able to go to the toilet properly, I can pee fine but I think I may be constipated. However I worried because I also have lower back pain and stomach pain. I also have Urinary incontinence . I get headaches more often even though I drink quite a lot of water and I feel extremely tired, all the time. I m wondering what is wrong with me :)
Hi, Thanks for your query think your asthma control has been compromised and exercise induced asthma is itself an indicator of poorly controlled asthma. Therefore, your asthma treatment should be stepped up. Please go through a spirometry testing and record the FEV1. You should start your treatment with a formoterol-budesonide combination inhaler 200 at 2 puffs twice daily along with montelukast 10 mg daily at night. You should have to use them on regular basis. Buy a peak flow meter and record your peak flow daily in a chart to self-monitor your asthma. Consult a good pulmonologist for that and treat under his guidance and make a periodical visit to his clinic for proper monitoring. Thank you.
