Finished Antibiotics For Bronchitis. Still Have Wheezing. Taking Prednisone. Healing Time?
I just got finished with a set of antibiotics for what they thought might have been bronchitis . I still have wheezing on my left side of chest and on my second round of prednisone . The cough is better I mainly feel like I have to cough to get rid of the wheeze and don t understand why the wheeze wont go away even on prednisone and an albuteral inhaler its not a bad wheeze just slight and is leaving a dull soreness under the breastbone
Actually antibiotics,dengestents Paracetamol,brufen increases breathlessnes
these should not be taken
Taper your steroid dose slowely
add Fexofenadine 120 mg bd
tab singular 10 mg tds
syp ventroloin 1/2 tsf bd
syp tossex 1/2 tsf bd for 10 days
The infection is cleared by the antibiotic
The inflammation and/or allergy continues / it will take a longer time.
You will need X-rays - if it is on one side only?? - obstruction has to be ruled out
Specific allergens may be evaluated by tests - RAST, for example.
Take care
Wishing speedy recovery
God bless
Good luck
