Asthma

What is Asthma?

Asthma is a chronic respiratory condition that causes the airways to become inflamed and narrow, making it difficult to breathe. Symptoms can include wheezing, coughing, chest tightness, and shortness of breath. Asthma triggers can vary from person to person but may include allergens, exercise, cold air, and respiratory infections. 

When is it necessary to see a doctor?

If you experience continuous symptoms, it's time to see a doctor for an asthma evaluation. A doctor can perform lung function tests and prescribe medications to help manage your symptoms and prevent asthma attacks. Treatment options for anxiety disorders can include therapy, medication, or a combination of both. Therapy may include cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), exposure therapy, or other forms of talk therapy. Medications commonly used to treat anxiety disorders include selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs), benzodiazepines, and beta-blockers.
