What Causes Breathing Difficulty And Sore Throat After Using Aerocort Inhaler?

Hello Doctor, I have allergic rhinitis as mentioned by my family doctor, but i never got checked up. I started using aerocort inhaler nearly 7 years back and it was on need basis. Lately i have been frequently experiencing troubled breathing and sore throat.. Is this something related and is ok to use the inhaler frequently? Please advise.
