    The green puffer is a good symptom controller, Salbutamol to salmeterol , but see your Doc for sure.

    You need to see your GP who might refer you to a specialist and have an asthma treatment plan done immediately. They’ll do a series of lung tests and then probably put you on a preventer. After being on that for a couple of days you should be fine to exercise but if you still feel out of breath try taking a few sprays from an inhaler before you work out and after if you need it.

    Hope this helps :)

    From what you written here it seems that you have exercise asthma, see a doctor and get started on medication, once they get your medication right you will be able to play soccer without getting asthma attacks again even if it means taking a puff before the game.

    Sorry, I am not much of an asthma expert, though I have occasional boughts of asthma but here’s one place where you can look up more information.

    I had some good effects from the natural remedies on this site, though not all of them worked. In any case, since you are not sure if you do have asthma, I would suggest you get a diagnosis done. That’s the right way to always handle medical issues.
