Allergy
Whenever your immune system detects a foreign substance as harmful, you become allergic. Such substances are allergens, and here an allergic reaction occurs. Foods, medication, pollen, and others are among the allergens.
There are many types of allergies, and they can present themselves in many different ways. Allergies can be seasonal or perennial. Some allergies may last a lifetime. Understand the nature of your allergy and how it manifests with our short video.
Start getting relief by checking in with an immunology and allergy specialist. Our allergy specialist can prescribe the proper management and medication to curb your symptoms through pediatric or adult allergy testing.
Asthma
Do you have a cough that just won't go away? Do you have trouble breathing? Do you hear whistling or wheezing as you breathe? All of these can indicate asthma.
All ages are affected by asthma, and its symptoms may range from mild to severe. They may occur every day or only infrequently. Asthma symptoms can be aggravated or set off by certain things, such as cold air, pollen, dust, or pets. We call these asthma triggers.
Keep asthma at bay. With the help of asthma and allergy specialists, life can be much more enjoyable and productive. Understand the basics of asthma and the various ways we can manage it in this video.
Respiratory
Each year, most adults and older children suffer from respiratory infections. There are numerous types of respiratory problems, from the common cold to pneumonia. These diseases can affect the upper respiratory system (nose, mouth, sinuses, and throat) or the lower respiratory system (bronchial tubes and lungs). Many may worsen into chronic diseases like COPD. Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease refers to an array of progressive lung diseases such as emphysema and chronic bronchitis.
