How To Relieve From Severe Asthma Symptoms?

My roommate has severe asthma and hasn't had medication for quite some time. Is there anything I can do for her to help relieve any symptoms? She needs a primary care doctor but no insurance, use county facilities which give her the run around and frustration.

Well we are both currently unemployed with no income. So thanks anyway.

Hello
Thanks for the query to H.C.M. Forum.
Bronchial asthma causes due to allergy due to some allergens .
These allergens are , dust , mite, pollen ,molds , sudden fall and rise of temperature , anxiety , smoking , fine dusting powder .
Avoidance from these predisposing factors help.
Usually this type of symptoms occurs due to bronchoconstriction and there develops ,running nose, whistling sound during breathing, tears from eyes with itching .
Bronchodilators +antihistamine (OTC ) will provide quick relief.
Coffee + steam inhalation also help.
Hope these information will be helpful for your roommate.
Good luck.
