Need to examine: Your husband's health issue is not suitable for this forum as thie requires in person evalltion and continuing care. It would be prudent to see a chest physician. Wish you and your husband good health!

Acute care: He may need a course of steroids, and must see a physician for further asthma management . Use his Albuterol MDi 2-4 puffs which may be repeated, while proceeding to urgent care. Avoid smoke, dust, pollen, animal dander and mold.
