Asthma

Comprehensive care for airway inflammation, wheezing, and breathing symptoms.

What is Asthma?

Are you experiencing wheezing, coughing, or shortness of breath? Asthma is a respiratory condition that should be evaluated by an Allergy & Immunology provider.

Asthma is a chronic condition that affects the airways in the lungs, causing inflammation and narrowing that can make breathing difficult. Symptoms may be triggered by allergens, exercise, infections, smoke, or environmental factors.

Common Symptoms

• Wheezing
• Shortness of breath
• Chest tightness
• Coughing, especially at night
• Breathing difficulty with exercise
• Symptoms triggered by allergens or irritants

When to see an Allergy & Immunology provider

You should see a specialist if breathing symptoms are frequent, worsening, limiting activity, disturbing sleep, or requiring repeated rescue inhaler use.

Early detection is important for managing the condition and preventing further complications.
