I was given my albuterol inhaler when I was diagnosed with Asthma at age 21, however, they said "use as needed". so here is my question, when do I need it? When I have a coughing fit and my chest hurts? when my chest aches and it's slightly hard to breathe? when it's hard to breathe, but I can still breathe? when it hurts to breathe? I honestly don't know, and I think I should be using it a lot more than I do, but I often just wait for it to pass, even though my chest always hurts. For instance this week I've had breathing problems everyday, and my chest has been sore all week....so please help, I just don't know!
