Drink some caffeine, like a caffeinated soda or strong coffee. That will help open things up. If it doesn't help, call 911 if you have to.

be carefull with the coffee it actually gives me asthma, another way is to have a salty broth, as salty as you can & warm as it is a salt deficiency & dehyrdation that is causing your asthma to serface.

look up watercures this will help, also vital functions of salt in the body.
God Bless!

A hot shower with the door closed so it is steamy can help.
