What Causes Severe Cough While Suffering From Sinusitis?

was at the doctor Friday with a panic attack and what they called a small sinus infection. I now can not eat I m coughing so hard I m throwing up and I can hear the struggle in my breathing. I m also an asthmatic. They gave me amoxocillin and my inhaler and neither are helping it seems to be getting worse. I ve tried steam baths hot teas cold medication and nasal spray. I m starting to feel like I ll pass out soon if this continues

Hi
Thanks for posting on HCM
Sinus infection may be a triggering factor of an asthma crisis.Breathlessness may be caused by ashtma crisis or a respiratory tract infection since respiratory tract infections may be associated with sinusitis.If symptoms too severe, you may need hospitalization with IV bronchodilator, antihistamins and antibiotics.I will suggest you continue with amoxicillin since you started taking it already, your inhaler
Then see the Doctor immediately for better management.
Hope this will help
Wish you a quick recovery
