7. Breathing Devices Besides Oxygen Masks

If the oxygen mask fails to do the job, some other medical devices may help the issue. Asthma inhalers and medications can assist in repair. A doctor may have to insert an IV to medicate you. Steroids may help with the inflammation in your lungs. In the event these options do not improve your situation, you may need to be hooked up to a machine that will breathe for you until you get the oxygen you need.
