Q. Does a nebulizer heal your lungs?

These corticosteroids reduce swelling of the mucous membrane and promote healing. The use of a nebulizer can help alleviate asthma symptoms like coughing phlegm output and chest tightness. A nebulizer atomizes liquid medication into tiny particles that are inhaled via a mouthpiece or mask as an aerosol or mist. A nebulizer can be used to inhale a wide variety of medications. Wheezing and other breathing difficulties can be mitigated by the combination of medicine and humidity which helps release mucus in the lungs.
