Asthma

💡TL;DR: Yes. Smoking weed can damage your lungs. Cannabis smoke carries many of the same toxins as tobacco and irritates airways, causing cough, phlegm, and bronchitis; these symptoms often improve after quitting (CDC, American Lung Association). Tobacco causes far more proven long-term disease because people smoke it more often,

💡TL;DR: Asthmatic bronchitis is a short-term chest infection on top of asthma, so you get the cough and mucus of bronchitis plus the wheeze and tight chest of an asthma flare. Most cases are viral and antibiotics are usually not needed. Expect about 2–3 weeks of symptoms, with

💡TL;DR: Incentive spirometers are devices you slowly inhale through to exercise and reopen your lungs, while peak flow meters are devices you blow into to measure how fast air leaves your lungs. Use a peak flow meter mainly for day-to-day asthma or lung function monitoring, and an incentive spirometer

💡TL;DR: COVID-19 can trigger new or worse asthma in a small minority of people, but most people recover without long-term breathing problems. Studies suggest adults who have had COVID-19 are roughly twice as likely to be diagnosed with asthma in the following months as those who were never infected,

💡TL;DR: Never use tap water in a nebulizer. It isn’t sterile, and aerosolizing it can seed germs into your lungs, including Legionella and nontuberculous mycobacteria. Use sterile 0.9% normal saline, distilled water (for cleaning) or, sterile water labeled for inhalation; single-use saline ampoules typically cost about $0.

💡TL;DR: Yes, you can bring a nebulizer on a plane. The TSA classifies nebulizers as medical devices allowed in carry-on and checked bags, but carry-on is strongly recommended for access and safety. Remove the device for X-ray screening; medically necessary liquids (like albuterol) are exempt from the 3-1-1 rule,

💡TL;DR: A nebulizer delivers a fine mist of sterile saline or prescribed meds directly to your lungs to calm cough, loosen mucus, and ease tightness. Most home treatments take 5–10 minutes and should be used only as prescribed (often spaced every 4–6 hours during flares). For dry

💡TL;DR: Rechargeable portable nebulizers are small, battery-powered devices that turn liquid medication into an inhalable mist anywhere. TruNeb is a Rechargeable Portable Nebulizer. Most deliver fine particles (about ≤5 μm) and run roughly 30–45 minutes per charge, enough for several 5–10 minute treatments. Expect mainstream models to

💡TL;DR: Inhalers are fast and pocket‑portable; nebulizers are easier to breathe from but take 5–10 minutes per treatment. Expect home nebulizers to cost about $50–$100+ for the device, while inhalers shift most cost to medication refills. When used correctly (often with a spacer), inhalers can work
