Asthma

Asthma is a chronic respiratory condition characterized by inflammation and narrowing of the airways, leading to difficulty breathing. It can cause symptoms such as wheezing, shortness of breath, chest tightness, and persistent coughing, particularly at night or early in the morning. Asthma can be triggered by various factors, including allergens, respiratory infections, exercise, and environmental pollutants.

Effective management of asthma involves a combination of medication and lifestyle adjustments. Inhaled corticosteroids and bronchodilators are commonly used to control inflammation and open the airways. Identifying and avoiding triggers, maintaining a clean environment, and following an asthma action plan are crucial for preventing and managing asthma attacks. At Prime Care Hospital, our pediatric specialists provide tailored care for children with asthma, focusing on personalized treatment plans to help control symptoms, improve quality of life, and support long-term respiratory health. Regular check-ups and monitoring are essential to ensure effective asthma management and adjust treatments as needed.
