Asthma is a long-term condition where the airways become inflamed and narrow, making it harder to breathe. Symptoms include wheezing, coughing, chest tightness, and shortness of breath. It often begins in childhood but can affect people at any age. With proper care and treatment, asthma can be effectively managed.

A chronic cough is one that lasts for eight weeks or longer. It’s often linked to causes like postnasal drip, asthma, or acid reflux. Treating the cough involves identifying and managing the underlying condition. With the right approach, the cough can usually be resolved.

Allergy shots, or immunotherapy, are a long-term treatment designed to reduce your sensitivity to specific allergens that cause conditions like allergic rhinitis, asthma, or insect sting allergy. Based on allergy testing, small doses of the allergen are given gradually, helping your body build tolerance and lessen allergic reactions over time.
