I have a Question about

ASTHMA

There is no cure for asthma, but once it is properly diagnosed and a treatment plan is in place you will be able to manage your condition, and your quality of life will improve.

CHRONIC OBSTRUCTIVE PULMONARY DISORDER

COPD is the name given to a group of lung disorders including emphysema, chronic bronchitis, and sometimes, chronic asthma.

COUGH

There are times when you should be concerned about your cough.Â

LUNG CANCER

Lung cancer is caused when groups of abnormal cells grow in the lungs. These groups of cells are called tumors, and as they grow, they destroy the healthy lung tissue around them.

PULMONARY HYPERTENSION

SHORTNESS OF BREATH

Shortness of breath is typically associated with diseases of the heart and lungs, and so many people experience it and begin to worry which can make the symptoms more intense.
