Heartburn....: Hello, Ventolin and corticosteroids are both recommended for acute attack of asthma, it will appear that at this time they are not enough to control the flare of your symptom. The chest pain may be due to the effect of your oral steroid. It will be important to get a consult to sort through your symptoms and to better arrange your medications to control your flare. take care!

Kindly c ur doctor: Or go to emergency, what you described warrants medical attention, keep taking the ventolin inhaler though, good luck
