Hello dear,
The lump on the side of neck can be attributed to enlarged lymph node, secondary to an upper respiratory tract infection.
Management involves:
1. A course of antibiotics to eradicate the causative organism.
2. Asthalin & Seroflo inhaler- provide symptomatic relief by causing broncho-dilation (dilating the smaller airway passages, relieving the obstruction & increasing airflow to lungs)
You can use it whenever you are having an acute attack.
3. Montelukast preparations- used as a maintenance therapy to relieve symptoms of asthma.
4. Antihistamine preparations like Allegra for symptomatic relief.
5. Maintain adequate hydration & take a healthy balance diet.
6. Also make sure that you are well protected from cold, dust & other allergens.
Wishing you a good health.
Take care.
