What Causes Constant Choking And Irritation In Throat?

Hi! Doctor, I am facing breathing problems due to sticky white bubble type mucus in my throat which choke the air. Doctors are saying its a bronchitis and asthma problem. I have this for more than a month, and now mucus is very frequent. I have used antibiotics and bronco dilator as prescribed by Dr. but there in not much relief. Further I am getting my mussels cramped and painful experience specially the left side body just above the stomach. I feel that the choking and irretation in my throat constantly. I am using steam and doing gargle but only for temporary relief. Pl advise. Thanks. Anand Agarwal, 48 years.

General & Family Physician 's  Response
hello,
i can understand your concern.
this seems like an upper respiratory tract infection along with bronchial asthma.
kindly get an culture sensitivity done for the throat secretions for better selection of the antibiotic to be prescribed.
a pulmonary function test along with a chest xray are also advisable to know about the cause.
kindly take a course of levofloxacin 500mg once daily for seven days,
continue taking the bronchodilator as prescribed. a steroid inhaler like budecort is also advised along with the bronchodilator.
continue taking steam and the salt water gargles.
get back to us with the reports.
feel free to ask further queries.
wish you a speedy recovery.
