Chest & Breathing Problems
Alcohol and asthma
Lately I've been feeling some amount of shortness of breath after drinking. I'm also diagnosed with a panic disorder.
I try and avoid alcohol as much as possible but occasionally when I do, how do I manage these symptoms?
And can an inhaler be used while you're on alcohol? Would that help.
Also what's the correlation between asthma and alcohol in general? Kindly help, thank you.
