A member asked:
Had right shoulder/neck pain for 3 months. now also having burning chest pain in right side, and asthma-like symptoms. inhaler helps, but not for long?

Not related: Your right sided pain may come from the cervical spine and i urge you to consult an orthopedist before things get worse. As for your asthma, you need a controller drug (usually an inhaled steroid) on a daily basis and again this needs to be prescribed by your doctor. Talk to your doctor soon before your asthma gets worse.
